Second Word from the Cross – Today you will be …

Luke 23:40-43 NLT
But the other criminal protested,
Don’t you fear God even when you have been sentenced to die?
We deserve to die for our crimes, but this man hasn’t done anything wrong.

Then he said,Jesus, remember me when you come into your Kingdom.
And Jesus replied, I assure you, today you will be with me in paradise. 

The Italian for remember is ricordare.
My name is recorded and remembered by Jesus.

Luke 10:19-20 NIV
I have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions
   and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you.
However, do not rejoice that the spirits submit to you,
   but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.

 Revelation 3:5 NIV
The one who is victorious will, like them, be dressed in white.
I will never blot out the name of that person from the book of life,
   but will acknowledge that name before my Father and his angels

I am victorious because of Jesus’ victory on my behalf on the cross.
My sins are no longer remembered (or recorded).
