I feel that it has been determined that Christ would die for the redemption of our souls and that Judas would be the man. Because Jesus himself said it that he would be betrayed and the person is in the midst of them. And I don't see any man changing what he has been preordained to be / do. If it is the will of God, what can man do?

If Judas had prayed like Jabez that his fortune be reversed:
1. Would God had answered such prayer? (1chronicles4:10)

2. If he did, what would have been the lot of Christians today?

I guess the jews Would have mocked us real good.

Would the Roman Soldiers have gallantly walked up to capture Christ? For we were taught it's difficult to differentiate Christ from his disciples

Would God have devised another means for Jesus to die?

If Judas didn't betray Jesus, Jesus wouldn't have died. If Jesus had jot died, there would be no resurrection. If Jesus had not resurrected, our faith is in vain hence, no hope of salvation. For faith produces salvation.
(1 corinthians 15:17, 20).

I have two submissions:
1. Definitely, his death would come through the hand of a man.
Why condemn such a man?

2. If we condemn him for the bribe collected, that's another story. But we seem to crucify him for betraying Jesus. Why?


Shouldn't we celebrate Judas instead?

Cursed?
Cursed for the betrayal that led to Jesus' death and ultimately salvation on earth?

Remember Christ acknowledged the prophecy concerning the man who would betray Him but He said "woe unto such a man for it would have been better if a milestone was tied around his neck and he was thrown into the sea"

Offences would come but a curse is placed on him/her through whom offences come.

So, what happens if, for instance, there was no man?
Like that man said, it's his destiny. Forget whatever, if he had not done the needful, you'd have had no hope of salvation.

We can't question God's choice as we are all made for His pleasure. I believe if Judas had asked for forgiveness after all that had happened, he would have been forgiving.
