The other criminal who was crucified along with Jesus repented for his wrongdoings. Repentance brings about forgiveness of sins and allows us to come into the presence of God.
Luke 23:40-43
But the other criminal rebuked him. "Don't you fear God," he said, "since you are under the same sentence? We are punished justly, for we are getting what our deeds deserve. But this man has done nothing wrong." Then he said, "Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom. Jesus answered him, "I tell you the truth, today you will be with me in paradise."
