two thieves...

Two thieves...
one of each side of Jesus

One accepted salvation (white cross),
the other one did not (black cross).

“One of the criminals who hung there

hurled insults at him:

'Aren’t you the Messiah?

Save yourself and us!'

But the other criminal rebuked him.

'Don’t you fear God,' he said,

'since you are under the same sentence?

We are punished justly,

for we are getting what our deeds deserve.

But this man has done nothing wrong.”

Then he said, 'Jesus, remember me

when you come into your kingdom.'

Jesus answered him,

'Truly I tell you, today

you will be with me in paradise.'”
- Luke 23:39-43 NIV
