Did Jesus Promise the Thief On The Cross a Free Ticket to Heaven? You Shall Be With Me in Paradise

When Jesus said "you shall be with me in paradise" to the thief on the cross. Was Hes really promising him a place in heaven?

Such a promise would have been contrary to the Word of God! Jesus was really giving the thief on the cross the truth of the resurrection planned for all who have ever lived and died as described in Revelation 20:5.

Elsewhere your bible says that no man has ascended to heaven except the resurrected Christ. Aren't these two teachings contradictory?
