Luke 23:43
And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto you, Today shall you be with me in paradise.
John 20:17
Jesus said unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God.
I have 3 questions:
1. How could the thief be in paradise with Jesus that same day if Jesus hadn't ascended to the Father in Heaven until much later after his resurrection?
2. Where was Jesus between his death and resurrection? If not with the Father, was He in paradise?
3. Is Heaven and Paradise two different places?
