And He said to him, "Truly I say to you, today you shall be with Me in Paradise." Luke 23:43
Jesus uttered seven things while hanging on the cross. Even in death, He was teaching us how to live and how to die. The crook on the cross next to Jesus was changed by the Majesty of Christ, and asked to be remembered when He came into His kingdom. This crook had nothing to offer and no way to repay, yet he had real value. Jesus was about to die and go to Paradise, and He invited the thief on the cross to come along with Him. When we truly behold the Majesty of Christ it will change our lives too. We can then be sure that Jesus has a place in Paradise for us as well. That's the Jesus style.
