Rahab's Red Rope, page-25

You must not be confused RM.
Paul being born again was perfectly correct to believe he would be in heaven with Christ
and to have that incorruptible crown. He is NOT in paradise, the one told to the thief. Paradise
means a Garden of Pleasure, an EARTHLY setting. Look it up in the dictionary please.

And you touched on the cross. The early Bible manuscripts do not use this word to describe the implement of death Jesus died on. He died on a STAUROS - the Greek word used means upright pole or stake. The cross was used in sun worship long before Christianity. If he died on a cross the gospel writers
would have used CRUX, but they did not. Do some research please.
