He did the two but more of fulfilling the scripture. And for our information Satan did not use him for anything, rather God used him to fulfill the scripture. If not him then it would still be someone else. If Judas did not betray Jesus may be Jesus wouldn’t have died yet and me and you will not be saved yet (according to the Bible). Remember he later returned the money and said he wasn’t doing again but it was too late, he was just an instrument in the hands of God and not devil because he only played a part in what God had already destined. Adam and Eve were used by Satan against God because Sin wasn’t in the plan of God for man but we can’t say the same for Judas. |

@MumEmdy Ok for instance, let's use this old thread as a case study on the predestination thing we were earlier on chatting about. Shey, on the surface level you would think that Judas was betraying Jesus just for the money? But this topic has brought another angle to it- What if all he was doing was fulfilling prophecy? God's words will never return to him void. Shey someone had to get the job done? To take the fall? Then can we say that it's was predetermined? Predestined for a man (most likely a man than a woman) to be used to fulfill that part of betraying Jesus? Was Judas predestined or it could have been any other man at the time? Hmmmm...it begs for pondering. Interesting isn't it? Hehe..I'm smiling here just putting it all into perspective. Now my thoughts, and based on the little wisdom (I think) I have, is that, God has preseen all these events even in heaven before they were acted out on earth. He has seen the end from the beginning. He has searched the hearts of men and seen who is most suitable for a certain role to play. Who is wicked, who is very kind at heart, and who is brave, etc.....God found them all as they were developing, growing. You know he is everlasting nau. So he saw that Judas will be born as a child, grow up, somehow by chance and time, get to meet Jesus. God saw that his heart worshipped money more than anything else. Did God cause him to love money that much? No. God is not wicked. But God allowed it to be out of freewill. So, he kept Judas alive all through the years as he sojourned through life, God didn't let him die in an accident or via murder. He was allowed to live till the appointment period (where he will meet and betray Christ) He was not the only candidate for the position of the greatest betrayer in history, but maybe through God's wisdom, He saw that this Judas of a man is the best amongst all the potential betrayers for the job (eyah). His own heart is far gone away from me (from God). God has seen that he will, by time and chance get to cross paths with Jesus and his other disciples. Thus, he allowed him to lead his own self down the road to destruction. And off Judas went, going to his destruction without really knowing he would overly regret it. Predestination I believe, is a real phenomenon. But there's always twist and turns to it, but not in all cases. Like Pharoh of Egypt had to play that part in the Exodus of the Israelites from Egypt, abi? If you read through, you will even see where God said that ' I made his heart more hardened towards the Israelites, that he wouldn't allow them go". This should tell us something, right?? So, he had been preselected for this role, and though he was king and occupied an enviable rank, he was the most unfortunate of them. His heart was evil and God allowed him to ascend to become king in order to make an example out of him...To ridicule him, and finally destroy him(the sea swallowed him and his chariots, bla bla..) I hope you got something out of this my enumerations o? There's a lot of wisdom that we need to discover, and it's through God we can get them...I want to know more mysteries and why this and that is allowed to happen...Gonna be an interesting journey as I grow up older. It helps to even pass time too...lol Plus you feel you're being carried along with what God is trying to achieve, is achieving and is teaching us humans, through these life occurrences that we sometimes don't understand......yet. Sigh..! I don talk wella..but I'm glad I did . I even learned something myself, whilst at it. U see.. 2 Likes |

FamilyAdviser:There are two or three ways to look at it 1. Judas betrayed Jesus for the pure greed of the money. He could also be expecting that Jesus would just vanish before his captors! A win-win for him 2. Judas betrayed Jesus to force him to do miracles before the Sanhedrin and other Jewish leaders so that Jesus could be accepted as their Messiah! Alas, Jesus didn't perform any self advertising or self delivering miracle. 3. Judas betrayed Jesus thinking that the Jewish leaders just wanted an interview with Jesus. His job was to facilitate this as Jesus seldom visits Jerusalem and could be relatively unknown by face to the Jewish leaders. The bottom line however is that according to prophecy, Jesus would be sold for 30 silver coins Zechariah 11:12-13 And I said unto them, If you think good, give me my hire; and if not, forbear. So they weighed for my hire thirty pieces of silver. And Jehovah said unto me, Cast it unto the potter, the goodly price that I was prized at by them. And I took the thirty pieces of silver, and cast them unto the potter, in the house of Jehovah” The case of Judas was NOT a PREDESTINATION but a fulfilment of the FOREKNOWLEDGE of God! 2 Likes |

Just like Judas was forewarned, Likewise many with still perishing For choosing to hardened their heart. The chief priest will definitely get hold of the Messiah, but let him do the hunting Let the blood be on his own head. Why choosing to be the devils advocate.?. |

The most annoying narrative is when they say "He knows the end from the beginning". Please how? So God knows when everybody will die. Why then do Christians pray not to die if it as already being predestined? The whole story no just follow. For somebody with such powers of knowing the end from the beginning, he sure makes some terrible decisions. 3 Likes |

penearth: As a very important character who had a unique role in fulfilling the prophecy it is strange that the Bible doesn't know if Judas iscariot jumped off a building or hung himself. So, if the Bible, the authoritative word of God, could not agree on the death of somebody but gave different accounts, even with the crucification of Jesus Christ... It shows the inconsistencies within it. 1 Like |

Yes, he betrayed the Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus said thou the Son came as it is written of him but owe unto him who shall betray him. So in essence, Judas Iscariot betrayed him and died of personal conviction and act( suicide) which may not guarantee heaven for him. The scripture must be fulfilled but owe is that man that betrayed the Prince of Life. Let's live our Christian lives today as the foundations of God stand sure. Don't betray Jesus in your daily living and behaviour. 1 Like |

FamilyAdviser: Acts 1 : 15 And in those days Peter stood up in the midst of the disciples, and said, (the number of names together were about an hundred and twenty,) 16 Men and brethren, this scripture must needs have been fulfilled, which the Holy Ghost by the mouth of David spake before concerning Judas, which was guide to them that took Jesus. 17 For he was numbered with us, and had obtained part of this ministry. John 17:12 While I was with them, I was keeping them in Your name which You have given Me; and I guarded them and not one of them perished but the son of perdition, so that the Scripture would be fulfilled. |
