Jesus Chose Judas

God / Jesus chose Judas.

I agree with your post.

Thank you, chaney! The truth will prevail! 🙂

Suzianne doesn't like to talk about the details of Christianity, and whether it all makes sense or not.

Just believe. Just have faith. That's what she says.

But the facts are....less than!!

What about it?

Satan entered Judas because Judas followed Jesus' command.

Satan was not involved.

According to the gospel of John Satan was involved.

Really?

Where was the choice of Judas in this mess?

When he made it. He was convicted of His sin, he knew that he betrayed innocent blood.

No.
I think you're wrong.
God chose Judas for this job.

Somebody needed to expose Jesus.

Or KellyJay, are you suggesting that Jesus could have nailed Himself to the cross?

Jesus was NOT going to nail Himself to the cross.

A betrayal was needed.

C'mon KellyJay....think.

I am thinking, God used the hate, greed, pride, of all of who opposed Him against them. Evil was revealed for what it is, and soundly defeated!

You want to glorify the one who betrayed Christ, up to you!

What if Jesus escaped into the desert?

No betrayal, no crucifixion.

What then? Our sins never get forgiven?

Then we should thank Satan.

Without the betrayal, there is no crucifixion, and without the crucifixion, there is no redemption.

Why do you thank anyone for the crucifixion? At the moment you reject Christ so it isn't doing you any good.

Is this your opinion that Satan sent Judas the Hero? Or could you please give me the reference from the bible that, without interpretation, shows just that?

I think you try to rewrite the story with fake information based of your opinion.

That's easy. The thief comes but for to kill, steal and destroy, John 10:10. And you are very much in error, calling him a hero.
Here is another reference....
1 Cor 2:7-8
But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, the hidden wisdom which God ordained before the ages for our glory, 8 which none of the rulers of this age knew; for had they known, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.
NKJV

I can't imagine your actually saying Jesus wanted people demon possessed and damned for something you claim they had no control over. You have no clue who God is!

What then? He came to do what He did out of love.
