Subject: Titus 3:5 and washing of regeneration |
Bible Note: Dalcent, thank you. Also, regarding the thief on the cross and Jesus' promise to him, "...Truly I say to you, today you shall be with Me in Paradise." (Luk 23:43), since John 20.17 indicates several days elapsed before Christ ascended to the Father, what Paradise is Jesus referring to? What is the Catholic teaching on this verse? Colin |
