Jesus Brings Paradise and Finishes His Assignment - Continue

 In order for that criminal to enjoy life in Paradise, he will have to be raised up from the dead. And he will not be alone in experiencing a resurrection.  Jesus made that clear when he said: "The hour is coming in which all those in thememoral tombs will hear his voice and come out, those who did good things to  a resurrection of life, and those who practiced vile things to a resurrection of judgment." - JOHN 5:28, 29.

But what of faithful apostles and the limited number of others who will be with Jesus in heaven?  The Bible says: "They will be priests of God and of the Christ, and they will rulee as kings with him for a 1,000 years." (Revelation 20:6) These who became corulers with Christ will have been men and women on earth.  So they will certainly be compassionate and understanding heaven rulers over those on earth. - REVELATION 5:10.
