Whazar:
Abeg clear me
We did not all come from heaven
God wanted sons who would be obedient to him
Then he created the world as an interview for all
Those who are able to live with the principles of heaven, ignoring the desires of their flesh on earth, will receive eternal life in heaven as their result of passing the interview on earth

The bible is a book of confusion. One minute he came to die for our sin, the next he is betrayed, the other he is killed. Killing and dieing are not even same . He resurrected and ran to heaven instead of going to meet his killers to show who is boss. Fairly tale religion

AntiChristian:
According to their Bible, Jesus came to die. Judas helped him fulfill this. And he became condemned.

Even the Bible became confused as to how Judas died!

Judas is supposed to be celebrated since good Friday is good and not bad!
I believe the problem with Judas is him committing suicide instead of begging for forgiveness.
Peter denied just, but repented as he's celebrated.

Bible said all things work for good to them that love God
What Judas did was evil but it worked out for the purpose of God.
He must receive punishment for his sin except the lord forgives him

emorse:

Judas actually told his but the early church leaders threw it out.
The gospel Judas, is a gnostic gospel which is considered as one of the worse forms of heresy to mainstream Christianity.

From the story in the gospel, It shows that Judas and Jesus had a unique relationship, where Judas was the only one that understood the true nature of Jesus (in gnosticism), and also that Jesus knew that Judas would need to betray him in order to fullfil his (gnostic) mission. The gospel doesn't condemn Judas, but is rather vague about his fate being favorable or not.

Very useful and brilliant contributions.

Judas actual offence was not the betrayal, which would have happened irrespective, but by committing suicide afterwards and not giving room to repentance and forgiveness for his actions from the father above.

All souls go to the father after death but the souls of sinners will be condemned to hell fire while the souls of repented and righteous one will receive a better welcome to heaven. This is what Jesus Christ taught us in the gospels.

Judas Iscariot soul died as a sinner and was due hell fire. This was the difference between kings David and Saul. The two committed offences against God Almighty in their times but David always demonstrated remorse and sought forgiveness but King Saul always becloud himself with failed time management and could not seek repentance. The results are there well written in the Bible.

So, you too have your day and time here on earth, use it well and don't be shy or proud to seek repentance whenever you have to.

Listen, even as human, you have a very good idea how a close family member would react in a certain situation. In fact, when an outsider says your family member or close friend did something, you know immediately whether the story is true or not because you know the person enough to predict their behavior. And you’re just human. How much more God to whom the spirit of a man is a candle with which He searches His innermost being? Summarily, God knew precisely what a person like Judas would do. Judas, on the other hand, has a choice to do what he wants. If it wasn’t him, it would be someone else. Why him? That’s the question for all of us- why me? Why should I be the one to go to hell? Why should I be the one to dishonor God? Nobody is forcing you. You have a choice just like Judas had a choice. Remember, Jesus made a comment: you’ll always have the poor among you but you won’t always have me. Is Jesus saying he’ll make some people poor to fulfill His prediction? Absolutely not. But He downright predict the world would always have poor people even though there shouldn’t. In the same way, God knew Jesus would be betrayed even though He shouldn’t. Judas DIDN'T HAVE TO DO IT.

The mere fact battery makers make acid, potter's make fire, does this make these things evil?

No! Not in their hands.

So also All things in the Hands of God are Good.

It is the unlawful use of good, like acid for the pouring on your children or the fire for the burning of your house, which makes it evil.

The unlawful use of evil, is evil, exactly like the car used for murdering people via overspeeding, is unlawful use of the car.

So, God is Good! But who is he that maketh you to do what you might otherwise not have done in line with Law?


So ur point is that evil is not evil

You came down clean before you entered your mother's belly.

Many still even come out clean as evident in some beautiful toddlers.

But after a while, their mothers kill them and they become sinners!

Lessons learnt here is that,though the prophesy needed to me fulfilled through someone but we as individuals have the right/choose to good role models of Christ and not the other way round.

Anyways, Jesus loves you. Give your life of him. Peace.

Judas never helped Jesus to fulfill His purpose on earth. There's nobody that can help God achieve His purpose on earth, rather it is God that will help you to achieve His purpose on earth. God killed Uzzah because he was trying to help Him, 2 Sam 6:6-7. The Jews were
always coming for Jesus, but His time had not reached and each time they come, He will escape. The arrest of Jesus by the Jews through the betrayal of judas coincided with the time Jesus was to die for our sins. So, if Judas had not betrayed Him, God would have made it possible for the Jews to arrest Jesus and charge Him before Pilate and others and be committed to sentence through hanging. Judas committed the greatest sin.

He betrayed him. The truth is, someone had to fulfill that role, but no one was the appointed one. That role was open for anyone who would fall victim,Which judas did.

Just like God said he would punish Israel, but would later deal with anyone that makes himself available to use in punishing Israel.

That is why I said "Who can not prophecy that a person who drives at the average speed of 180kph from Abuja to Lagos, will have an accident?"

Even you too play the game of pre-determination. You have once said, "make nobody give Wilson moto, hin go scatter am"

You have predetermined Wilson's future, same for Tinunu!
The difference is that while I say Wilson should not be handed the keys based on his person, I can not say 100% that he will scatter the vehicle if he is allowed to ride..However, in the case of Judas, it was certain 100% that the prophecy must be fulfilled.

What do you make of make of that portion of the Bible that says God knows our end from the very beginning? If he already knows Osama Bin Laden was going to bomb the world trade center from the time he was born, will you then call Osama a bad person knowing too well his life trajectory was already predetermined?

It therefore means it was impossible for all of them to resist the temptation since it was already cast in stone that one of the 12 disciples will betray Jesus...

Yes he betrayed Jesus.
If the nature of Judas was to betray,then we are all doomed by our nature. Because the nature of man is sinful.
Then why all these. Why fight for salvation, when we are all predestined to a certain fate

What do you mean, if the person was sick, is there any evidence even if the sickness was terminal was going to kill such person at that moment you hit him with stick. Of course na you kill the person.
Of course you have answered me, police will arrest the person that killed hit him as the one that killed him. So even if it has been prophesied that Jesus will killed/die for rescue of men. Bible didn't say it should be Judas, he should be hold responsible for selling Jesus to death, hence betrayal.

FamilyAdviser:
It was destined that Jesus Christ will come and save the world, one of the stringent policy attached to his coming was his death which he accepted wholeheartedly when every other Angels declined.

We all know the story of how Judas Iscariot Betrayed Jesus:
For instance in Luke 22:4-6

4 And Judas went to the chief priests and the officers of the temple guard and discussed with them how he might betray Jesus. 5 They were delighted and agreed to give him money.(G) 6 He consented, and watched for an opportunity to hand Jesus over to them when no crowd was present.

In Matthew 27:3-5, Judas tells the chief priests and elders, "'I have sinned,' he said, 'for I have betrayed innocent blood. ... ' So Judas threw the money into the temple and left. Then he went away and hanged himself.
Did Judas Iscariot Betrayed Jesus or help him Fulfill the Scripture??

There is no point paying much attention on the role Judas played, there are more serious issues Christianity is facing in Nigeria at the moment. Let talk about it rather and try to make amends or be part of negative history.

There are a lot of History books that gives account of his life on earth outside religious books. Archeologist has proven it many times as well, which are scientific evidence. Take you time and Google's those books online and be enlightened. I repeat again, under whose authority are speaking to dispute his existence?
