Mark\u2019s gospel is very similar to Matthew\u2019s gospel. However, Luke\u2019s gospel, which is the one we will be looking at in this episode, shares a unique event that the other gospels don\u2019t include, and this detail may shed light on why Jesus decided to be crucified on that weekend.<\/p>\r\n<p>While prophecy pointed to the time Jesus would die, remember that the Godhead could have written prophecy to say whatever they wanted it to say, so Jesus wasn\u2019t acting outside of the Godhead\u2019s plan, nor was He trapped by it. The whole Godhead wrote this particular weekend into prophecy and creation for a specific reason and I believe Luke\u2019s gospel shares what this reason might be.<\/p>\r\n<p>Our last episode focused on and ended with Jesus receiving insults from everyone around Him, but I hinted at not everyone being so hostile. Let\u2019s read what Luke shares with us, and about one condemned man\u2019s request for a favor from Jesus. Our passage is found in Luke\u2019s gospel, chapter 23, and we will be reading from the New International Version of the Bible. Starting in verse 32, Luke tells us:<\/p>\r\n<p><strong><sup>32\u00a0<\/sup>Two other men, both criminals, were also led out with him to be executed.\u00a0<sup>33\u00a0<\/sup>When they came to the place called the Skull, they crucified him there, along with the criminals\u2014one on his right, the other on his left.\u00a0<sup>34\u00a0<\/sup>Jesus said, \u201cFather, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.\u201d And they divided up his clothes by casting lots.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong><sup>35\u00a0<\/sup>The people stood watching, and the rulers even sneered at him. They said, \u201cHe saved others; let him save himself if he is God\u2019s Messiah, the Chosen One.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong><sup>36\u00a0<\/sup>The soldiers also came up and mocked him. They offered him wine vinegar\u00a0<sup>37\u00a0<\/sup>and said, \u201cIf you are the king of the Jews, save yourself.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong><sup>38\u00a0<\/sup>There was a written notice above him, which read: this is the king of the jews.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>Pausing briefly here, what we have just read echoes what we see written in Matthew and Mark\u2019s gospel. However, from this point forward in Luke\u2019s gospel, he draws our attention onto the two criminals, and how each one interacted with Jesus. Continuing in verse 39, Luke tells us:<\/p>\r\n<p><strong><sup>39\u00a0<\/sup>One of the criminals who hung there hurled insults at him: \u201cAren\u2019t you the Messiah? Save yourself and us!\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong><sup>40\u00a0<\/sup>But the other criminal rebuked him. \u201cDon\u2019t you fear God,\u201d he said, \u201csince you are under the same sentence?\u00a0<sup>41\u00a0<\/sup>We are punished justly, for we are getting what our deeds deserve. But this man has done nothing wrong.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong><sup>42\u00a0<\/sup>Then he said, \u201cJesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong><sup>43\u00a0<\/sup>Jesus answered him, \u201cTruly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>When we read these last four verses, it is very tempting to shift our entire focus onto Jesus\u2019 promise in the last verse, how immediate this promise sounds, and on how this criminal gets saved at the last possible moment. It is tempting to focus on the \u201cdeathbed confessional\u201d and use it as a model or plan for our lives.<\/p>\r\n<p>However, focusing on these verses in this way is both risky, and it cheapens the gift God is offering to us. We don\u2019t know anything about these two criminals, about what they did, about when they were arrested, about how long they had been in prison, or if they had any previous interaction with Jesus.<\/p>\r\n<p>It is very probable to conclude that with how famous Jesus was among the people, that these two criminals definitely knew about Jesus, about His ability to perform miracles, and about His love for the least in society, but we don\u2019t have any idea if either had met Jesus before.<\/p>\r\n<p>Regardless of their past, what we see displayed on the cross from these two criminals is amazing. <strong>The first criminal hurled insults at Jesus and he challenged Jesus to save Himself and them. This criminal had a selfish focus and a focus that was only looking at the present world.<\/strong> In an odd sort of way, this first criminal, who may have been thrown in prison for following a messiah who wanted to overthrow Rome now turns to Jesus and challenges Him with the notion regarding Jesus being the Messiah, even though Jesus has never shown any military interests, and He avoided being sucked into political discussion.<\/p>\r\n<p>However, the second criminal has a different focus. <strong>The second criminal focuses not on the present life and present circumstances, but on the future one. I believe that the Godhead chose that weekend for Jesus to die because they wanted this criminal with them in heaven!<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>But while turning to God at the end of one\u2019s life might seem appealing, it is a very dangerous plan. At the very least, since we don\u2019t know when we will die, or if we will die suddenly or gradually, following a deathbed confessional plan is dangerous because a sudden death means we won\u2019t have chosen God. This plan only works if our life follows a predictable plan, and while some aspects of life are predictable, there are plenty of cases where lives are cut short quickly because of sin.<\/p>\r\n<p>However, where this criminal is when He comes to Jesus is different than each of us. We have no evidence for this criminal accepting Jesus, then rejecting Him, then coming back to Him here on the cross. It\u2019s possible this is what happened, because God is ready and willing to forgive, but it is also very possible that this criminal had never met Jesus and sharing a cross next to Jesus was the first chance he got to be with Him.<\/p>\r\n<p>But this conversation while these men were on the cross reveals three amazing things about conversion that we might not realize at first.<\/p>\r\n<p>First, this conversion demonstrates a fear and respect of God. The criminal opens his mouth by first defending God against the criticism of the other criminal. Verse 40 tells us the second criminal rebukes the first one saying, \u201c<strong>Don\u2019t you fear God, since you are under the same sentence?<\/strong>\u201d The second criminal defends God and acknowledges God\u2019s right to judge.<\/p>\r\n<p>Second, the second criminal acknowledges that he deserves the punishment he is being given. Another way to say this is that this second criminal acknowledges that he is a sinner who deserves to die. At the most basic level, everyone who has ever sinned, and this is everyone who has ever lived except Jesus, deserves death. The second criminal acknowledges that his life and his choices deserve death, by saying in the first part of verse 41, \u201c<strong>We are punished justly, for we are getting what our deeds deserve.<\/strong>\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p>But thirdly, the second criminal acknowledges that Jesus is innocent and that He is being punished while not deserving this punishment. Verse 41 finishes with the criminal acknowledging, \u201c<strong>But this man <\/strong>[referring to Jesus]<strong> has done nothing wrong.<\/strong>\u201d This criminal defends Jesus publicly against the ridicule of everyone else present, and he publicly allies himself with Jesus even though they both are facing death.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>All three of these themes in these two verses of defense ally this second criminal with God, and the only way this criminal could acknowledge this is if the Holy Spirit had been working on his heart leading up to this moment. Even before asking Jesus for the favor, the criminal displays a relationship with God that shows God has been working on his heart and in his life.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong>This criminal isn\u2019t doing a 180 turn spiritually while on the cross, but in however long he had been locked up in prison, the Holy Spirit had been working on his heart leading him to realize his sin and his need for a Savior.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>The declaration on the cross concludes with a request of Jesus. The criminal asks Jesus in verse 42 to \u201c<strong>remember me when you come into your kingdom.<\/strong>\u201d The criminal acknowledges that Jesus\u2019 kingdom is not of this world, and that it is of a heavenly nature. The criminal acknowledges the divinity of Jesus in his request.<\/p>\r\n<p>We could spend an entire other episode talking about the ideas surrounding Jesus\u2019 answer to this criminal\u2019s request and the debates that exist over how immediate Jesus\u2019 promise sounds, but these debates are less relevant than the simple truth that Jesus accepted this criminal and his request. Jesus accepted this criminal\u2019s request because in this request, we see evidence of a changed heart and a changed life, and this sort of change can only come from a heart that has let the Holy Spirit work on it behind the scenes.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Jesus is ready and willing to accept us when we come to Him with a heart that the Holy Spirit has been working on as well. This passage points us to the powerful truth that: Where you finish your life is more important than where you start it \u2013 and the only place that is worth ending your life is being allied with Jesus, with the Holy Spirit living in your heart!<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>As we come to the end of another podcast episode, here are the challenges I will leave you with:<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Always seek God first and choose today to let the Holy Spirit live in your heart and in your life, and publicly ally with Jesus. While it might be easier to hide your faith, a hidden faith is not valuable to others or to God in the big picture. This criminal displays a faith that is public through his defense of Jesus before making his request. God has called us to defend Jesus and to publicly acknowledge Him before others.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Also, as I regularly challenge you to do, always pray and study the Bible for yourself to grow your personal relationship with Jesus. Prayer and Bible study are ways of bringing the Holy Spirit into your heart and into your life and God is happy to give you the Holy Spirit when you are earnestly seeking to grow towards Him. Intentionally move and grow towards God today through prayer and studying your Bible. <\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong>And as I end every set of challenges by saying in one way or another, never stop short of, chicken out of, or fall away from where God wants to lead you to in your life with Him!<\/strong><\/p><\/div><\/div>\r\n<p><strong>Flashback Episode:<\/strong> \r\nYear of the Cross &#8211; Episode 45: When Luke tells us about a criminal asking Jesus for a favor, we discover some amazing truth about someone who was nailed to a cross next to Jesus. You might be surprised with what this criminal says, with what he asks, and with how Jesus responds!\r\n<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1577","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-audio"],"nelio_content":{"autoShareEndMode":"never","automationSources":{"useCustomSentences":false,"customSentences":[]},"efiAlt":"","efiUrl":"","followers":[],"highlights":[],"isAutoShareEnabled":false,"networkImageIds":[],"permalinkQueryArgs":[],"series":[],"suggestedReferences":[]},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Flashback Episode - Learning from a Criminal: Luke 23:32-43 - Reflective Bible Study Gospel Adventure<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/reflectivebiblestudy.com\/gospeladventure\/fb-learning-from-a-criminal-luke-23-32-43\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Flashback Episode - Learning from a Criminal: Luke 23:32-43 - Reflective Bible Study Gospel Adventure\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/reflectivebiblestudy.com\/gospeladventure\/fb-learning-from-a-criminal-luke-23-32-43\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Reflective Bible Study Gospel Adventure\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/reflectivebiblestudy\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2021-11-08T10:00:00+00:00\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Cam\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:creator\" content=\"@godstruthhisway\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@godstruthhisway\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Article\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/reflectivebiblestudy.com\\\/gospeladventure\\\/fb-learning-from-a-criminal-luke-23-32-43\\\/#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/reflectivebiblestudy.com\\\/gospeladventure\\\/fb-learning-from-a-criminal-luke-23-32-43\\\/\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"Cam\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/reflectivebiblestudy.com\\\/gospeladventure\\\/#\\\/schema\\\/person\\\/6aa6c062baad6d28cd49429d13dee5e3\"},\"headline\":\"Flashback Episode &#8212; Learning from a Criminal: Luke 23:32-43\",\"datePublished\":\"2021-11-08T10:00:00+00:00\",\"mainEntityOfPage\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/reflectivebiblestudy.com\\\/gospeladventure\\\/fb-learning-from-a-criminal-luke-23-32-43\\\/\"},\"wordCount\":1906,\"articleSection\":[\"Audio Journal Entries\"],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/reflectivebiblestudy.com\\\/gospeladventure\\\/fb-learning-from-a-criminal-luke-23-32-43\\\/\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/reflectivebiblestudy.com\\\/gospeladventure\\\/fb-learning-from-a-criminal-luke-23-32-43\\\/\",\"name\":\"Flashback Episode - Learning from a Criminal: Luke 23:32-43 - Reflective Bible Study Gospel Adventure\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/reflectivebiblestudy.com\\\/gospeladventure\\\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2021-11-08T10:00:00+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/reflectivebiblestudy.com\\\/gospeladventure\\\/#\\\/schema\\\/person\\\/6aa6c062baad6d28cd49429d13dee5e3\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/reflectivebiblestudy.com\\\/gospeladventure\\\/fb-learning-from-a-criminal-luke-23-32-43\\\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\\\/\\\/reflectivebiblestudy.com\\\/gospeladventure\\\/fb-learning-from-a-criminal-luke-23-32-43\\\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/reflectivebiblestudy.com\\\/gospeladventure\\\/fb-learning-from-a-criminal-luke-23-32-43\\\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\\\/\\\/reflectivebiblestudy.com\\\/gospeladventure\\\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Flashback Episode &#8212; Learning from a Criminal: Luke 23:32-43\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/reflectivebiblestudy.com\\\/gospeladventure\\\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/reflectivebiblestudy.com\\\/gospeladventure\\\/\",\"name\":\"Reflective Bible Study Gospel Adventure\",\"description\":\"Your Life.
