Sorry darlin' - perhaps I could have done a better job writing that post...? :unsure:

My remark under Magenta's post was not actually directed at/to you.

Everything in the post was actually directed at @TMS - as a reply to his post #213 - which quoted the same post of yours that I quoted.

I was just using the posts you and @Magenta made to "set up" the point I wanted to make to TMS.

"I promise I will try to do better next time..." :D

:)

:coffee:

All good, I generally do worse the next time, in fact I barely recognize myself on CC. :eek::D

Nope. Nothing like that. Absolutely not.
Okay
What are people saying....? I'm confused...

Some are saying the theif went to heaven... some are saying paradise is not heaven and he went to a paradise with Jesus.

But the Bible does not support this.

Jesus did not go to the father until after His resurrection and I don't know of any paradise other then Heaven.

Paradise = The Bosom of Abraham refers to the place of comfort in the biblical Sheol (or
Hades in the Greek Septuagint version of the Hebrew Scriptures from around 200 BC, and
therefore so described in the New Testament) where the righteous dead await redemption.
Abraham's Bosom is not meant to be a literal, physical place, but rather a figurative
way of describing the blessed state of the righteous souls awaiting redemption.
