The Thieves on the cross have always been treated with contempt by 3-Steppers, and I don't blame them. They risk their entire worldview crumbling. This is where they cling to Darby and Scofield's twisted Dispensationalist theology.

nice, poor reading and comprehension skills. You should know by now and stop skewing what I have said all along. The new covenant was based upon that which was old but realized through the death and quickening Spirit of Christ.
I have no problem with the theif on the cross not contempt. He was under what he was under.
