Did not Christ promie sthe thief on the cross, "Today shalt thou be with me in paradise?” It is recorded thus in Luke. But how does this agree with the Bible teaching that the dead rest in their graves until the resurrection day? Punctuation is a modern invention. Bible writers had nothing to do with it. Modern translators did their best in punctuating the Bible, and we should thank them for it, but they made a few mistakes, one of which is in Luke 23:43, It will be proper to make a slight change. The repentent thief asked that he be remembered when Christ should come into His Kingdom. "And Jesus said un to him, I say unto thee today, Thou ¡halt bs with me in paradise. I would para phrase Christ’s words thus: I make you the promise this very day. Thou shait be with me in paradise. Did Christ go to paradise that day? No. Even after his resurrection He told Mary that He had not ascended to the Father. The Father’s throne is in par adise. Compare Rev. 2:7 with Rev. No, Christ did not go to Heaven when He died. He prophesied of His own ex perience in Matt. 12:40. "As Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth." Jonah, or Jonas, was confined to the whale; Christ was confined to the earth. Did He do any preaching to lost souls during those three days and nights? 1 Peter 3:18-20 is often cited as proof that He did. Read it for yourself. It simply says that Christ, by His Spirit, in the days of Noah, preached to those who were bound in the prison house of sin, and that eight people were sav ed. Surely that has nothing to do with what Christ did while in the grave. Christ died for our sins, rested in the grave as other men do. and at the ap pointed time was raised to life again as a typo of what will take place on that great ressurection day when we may be priviledged to meet our loved ones.— U.
