One day, two thieves were condemned by hanging on the stake for stealing. Another man that was not a thief was condemned by hanging for doing good, preaching, teaching, healing people and showing them the Way to Eternity. The three happened to meet at a hanging ground, three stakes was made. The man doing good was at the middle, the two thieves were on the right side and left side of our LORD Jesus Christ. The one at His left hand side questioned,  
"Jesus Christ, I believe you are the one saving people, if you are the Christ, why not save yourself and us". The other thief at the right His right cautioned the thief at the left side by questioning him "Don't you fear GOD"? We are thieves and have committed an offense punishable by hanging. But this man doesn't deserve death so why do you dare say such a thing to Him.

The man by Jesus Christ's right hand turned to Christ and said" Master, remember me in your paradise, Jesus replied him by saying, Today you shall be with me in paradise". The thief at the right hand of Christ took an advantage of his last chance to admit his guilt and asked for a paradise which Jesus Christ gave to him while the thief at the left lost out for condemning the good work of Christ.

Now where do you stand? Are you on the right side or the left side?  Because there is no other way you can enter into paradise except through Jesus Christ but you have to admit that you are a chronic sinner. Sinners are to turn away from their sins and go for cleansing in the Blood of Jesus Christ. There is always forgiveness for every repentant sinner. There is salvation for every sinful soul. Today, be like the man at the right hand of Christ at the stake or cross because this is your last chance to make a wide decision, to seek Christ as He is around you now, to transform your life from death to life. Make sure you are on the LORD's side.
GOD bless you all.
