Thank you for posting The LORD had helped me through your ministry I was a bit of a prodigal the last 10 years I never stopped believing in GOD but I was kindve doing my own thing I wasn't into drugs or any thing like that but I had stopped attending church stopped reading my bible stopped praying but now I read my bible daily pray and even found a local church where my wife and i attend every Sunday thank you God has used you pastor I've been watching your sermons in TH-cam for the past year and love listening to them in my car on my way to work GOD Bless you in JESUS name I can't wait to shake your hand in heaven. To JESUS be all the glory thanks again :)
that was me, until ealier this year August 2019. so surprising, i aslo count + or - 10 years back. was exaclty caught up in the same situation. Glory to God for his revival in my life.
Unbiblical teaching. Judas did not Betray Jesus. Jesus Chose Judas. John 13:27 , Luke 22:3 clearly state that Judas was possessed by Satan, who was commanded by Jesus: As soon as Judas took the bread, Satan entered into him. So Jesus told him, “What you are about to do, do quickly.” Speaking to Satan... Judas regretted his actions, attempted to repent, and return the silver coins, and blamed himself for Christ's Murder. When Christ Decended to the Land of the Dead, he Released Judas from the grip of Satan. For Satan has No Power over Christ. Jesus took Judas to Heaven.
People say that Judas has a choice to be forgiven before his betrayal. But if he decided "hey, maybe I won't betray Christ", then what would have happened to the salvation story? Would it just have been someone else who betrayed him instead?
Actually good question The anwser to that i think piggybacks off the old testament Do you remember when Pharoh had chance and chance time and time again to let the Hebrews go as per Moses relaying God's message ? And Pharoh hardened his heart over and over, until God solidified it ? Fast forward to the new testament John 13: 21-30 The devil could not enter a vessel that was saved It is similar to the hardened heart
Judas is not doomed. Judas Iscariot is the first person to publicly proclaim that the innocent blood of Jesus Christ was shed on account of his sin. Matt. 27:4. Whenever I read about his sin of betrayal, I also see the blood of Jesus Christ. God the Father, does not see the sin but only the blood. I am forever praising and believing Jesus is the Christ, and this is pleasing to God.
1John 1:7…the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin 9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. Judas Iscariot confessed his sin (Matthew 27:4), I believe the blood of Jesus Christ has cleansed him of all unrighteousness. I am forever praising and believing Jesus is the Christ and this is pleasing to God.
DID Judas betray Christ ? The Bible says No. John 13:27 , Luke 22:3 clearly state that Judas was possessed by Satan, who was commanded by Jesus: As soon as Judas took the bread, Satan entered into him. So Jesus told him, “What you are about to do, do quickly.” Speaking to Satan... Judas regretted his actions, attempted to repent, and return the silver coins, and blamed himself for Christ's Murder. When Jesus died and decended to the land of the dead, without a doubt, he gave Juda's soul a hug & took him to Heaven. Judas did what he did BY YHWH's Plan for Salvation. Well Done, good & faithful servant. Well Done.
Judas is a very interesting character, however things at least to me were not so simple, the fact that he went back to the Sanhedrin at told them he had betrayed innocent the Lord is a clue that he did showed remorse, he knew that he had done wrong, it’s not that he was totally evil, he was not invested in the Lord wholeheartedly, and that to me is scary, watching the lord do all those miracles and still love money and status so much he was willing to betray the Lord after that is unconscionable. God have mercy on us all.

Judas was doomed. christ said it would have been better if he had never been born . 11 disciples call Chrits lord. Judas calls him teacher at the last supper . Judas never truly believed . He believed in himself . 2 corinthians 7:10 . Judas has worldly remorce, not Godly. Worldy remorce leads to death .
@@mercytreeministries5973 I think that what Christ was saying is that it would have been better for Judas to have been born after the cross rather than before it...the same could have been said of the family of Herod ..they killed John the Baptist & James the step brother of Christ & Stephen..Judas was a decendant of Judah.. Judah had mental problems.. those problems may have been passed from father to son...no one knows all of the details..we can only guess.
Great words as always Pastor Greg, but what if that stupid thing keeps recurring? that refrain , i end up doing what i don't want to do and do not do what i want to do......i am at my end it feels like brother.
The is an incident which shows Judas did NOT love money. When he threw away the money. I do believe that the pastor would have broken the feet of Judas.
23:36 Jesus also wanted Peter, James, and John to keep watch and pray that they would not enter into temptation. He was concerned about their spiritual condition as well as His own emotional, physical, and spiritual distress.
It surprises me that so far no one has apparently bothered to simply ask the most basic of questions: Why would the Sanhedrin pay Judas such a princely sum... to point out someone they already KNEW well? Yes... you heard me right. In all THREE Synoptic Gospels, Jesus, Himself, points out to the arrest party that they had all SEEN Him teaching daily in the Temple... and had been WITH HIM as He taught (?!): "Jesus said to them, 'Have you come with swords and clubs to arrest me like you would an outlaw? DAY AFTER DAY I WAS WITH YOU, teaching in the temple courts, yet you did not arrest me.'" (Mark 14:48-49, Matt 26:55, Luke 22:53) Thus... They KNEW Him, already! Jesus RECOGNIZED them all... and knew THEY recognized Him. So....... what did it matter whether Judas was there or not to "kiss" Him and point Him out? And why would they pay Judas anything to do so? The simple Truth here is this: There was no "Judas Kiss"... there was no Judas "betrayal"... and there probably was no Judas, period. Instead... the Judas story was later concocted to HIDE the truth regarding those who really DID betray Jesus by testifying against Him at His trial before the Sanhedrin... to save their own skins. Wanna take a guess who those real betrayers were? Here's a hint: Peter wasn't seated with the guards outside Jesus's trial, unable to leave as people kept recognizing him, 'cuz they were all such great buddies. Think about it... take all the time you need. ;)
It had been prophesied in the Old Testament that Christ would be betrayed by a friend & with a kiss..Christ told him to do what he had planned to do & to do it quickly..Christ could have stopped everyone..including Adam & Eve & the serpent in the Garden of Eden..christ has stopped satan & all of the fallen angels in heaven..He just cast them out instead.

When Jesus would teach and preach in Jerusalem, the Priestly class( Sehendrin, Pharisees) would try to stone him, capture him and kill him..But Jesus had a miraculous power to disappear in thin air...Judas who was a Zealot,cultured in Judahism, He became a follower of JESUS.. Jealous ofJesus miracle and works of wonders, he desire to turn him over to the Priest and show him to them by the Judas Kiss...Jesus can easily disappear in thin air and vanishes, but he knew it was his time to be the sacrificial lamb...to be crucified for all the sin of of the WORLD...Jesus life was the payment for all the sin of mankind...JERUSALEM and the Priestly class want to kill Jesus, but the Jewish law have no death penalty...So Jesus had to be turn over to the ROMAN law to be crucified and killed...it's not our will, but " THE WILL OF GOD"...Pray for our Salvatori.....Giorgio Messina......
The law said that if a man said that he was God..that he would have to die..even if He was God..there were no exceptions..that is called blasphemy..in other words..HE WOULD THEN..AS GOD.. AFTERWARDS..HAVE TO PROVE THAT HE WAS & IS GOD BY RISING FROM THE DEAD..WITNESSED BY ALL.. Jesus raised Himself, but also His Father & the Holy Spirit assisted Him..fulfilling in full Their prophecy..spoken by all three together saying the same thing at the same time: "let Us make Man in Our image"..Jesus said: "when you have seen Me, you have seen the Father"..not that He & His Father were the same Person.. but both or all 3 were co-equal in Glory & Majesty & Holiness.
Despite the fact that Satan possessed Judas. Despite the fact that once Satan left Judas he felt on overwhelming guilt. Predestination and free will? 🤔😉😆
Which is true? Judas threw the money into the temple, went away and hanged himself (Matthew 27:5) or Judas bought the field with the money, fell, burst open there and his bowels gushed out (Acts 1:18) ? They can't both be true.
Not with that re-wording and ignoring the rest of the paragraph (context), no. Matthew 27:6, the next verse, explains that the priests recognized the money Judas threw back into the temple as blood money and therefore couldn't remain in the temple (talk about hypocrisy--Judas isn't the only one "acting" here) and therefore bought a field with it where strangers could be buried. Acts 1:18 references this purchase on Judas' behalf and provides supplemental information: Judas' corpse fell from his hanging and burst open. Since it was a field for strangers, his body, apparently, wasn't tended to. Whether there is any correlation to the sacrificial system and all the cleaning of intestines and whatnot I do not know. Therefore, the two accounts are complementary, not contradictory. I hope that helps!
I agree with Julian. Matthew's account is that Judas returned the money and the priests were the one who bought the field. Matthew doesn't say what happened, just that Judas hung himself. Acts gives a more detailed account of the hanging. It goes to the actual field where he hung himself. He probably had been hanging for a while in the hot heat, and the bacteria in his intestines caused his stomach to expand. Then, when he fell (dead) from the rope, his guts spewed out because of all the pressure. Same story, just different perspective. It makes the Bible that much more awesome.
@@katherinehurt5238 I was drawing a parallel between "The wages of sin is death" (Romans 6.23) and the wages of dead religion (Matthew 23.27) concerned with only legalities (outside of the cup/whitewashed tombstones) rather than repentance (change of mind) that brings forth transformation (Romans 12:1-2) through faith (trust) in Jesus (God); cf. James 2:14ff
Judas is in Heaven, He obeyed Jesus in the most difficult mission. John 13:27 , Luke 22:3 clearly state that Judas was possessed by Satan, who was commanded by Jesus: As soon as Judas took the bread, Satan entered into him. So Jesus told him, “What you are about to do, do quickly.” Speaking to Satan... Judas regretted his actions, attempted to repent, and return the silver coins, and blamed himself for Christ's Murder. When Christ Decended to the Land of the Dead, he Released Judas from the grip of Satan. For Satan has No Power over Christ. Jesus took Judas to Heaven.
Judas was Jesus's best friend. Jesus begged him to betray him. Whatever Jesus couldn't say to other Apostles, He woud say to Judas. Poor Judas was just following the orders from Jesus.He had to do it. He is a Hero.Without Judas there will not be Christianity. Give Judas a Goddamn respect that he deserves !
1John 1:7…the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin 9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. Judas Iscariot confessed his sin (Matthew 27:4), I believe the blood of Jesus Christ has cleansed him of all unrighteousness.

It's clear that Judas OBEYED CHRIST, & followed Jesus, & Judas never Betrayed Jesus. SATAN possessed Judas & then Christ Commanded Satan : John 13:27 , Luke 22:3 As soon as Judas took the bread, Satan entered into him. So Jesus told him, “What you are about to do, do quickly.” Judas, the human, regretted his actions, attempted to repent, and return the silver coins, and blamed himself for Christ's Murder. I don't know what Satan possession felt like to Judas, but it must have been agonizing & very painful ! When Christ Decended to the Land of the Dead, he of course Released Judas from the grip of Satan. For Satan has No Power over Christ. Jesus took Judas to Heaven. Well Done Good and Faithful Servant. Well Done.
Judas was of the devil ..and Jesus saw him coming John 6:70. Jesus even warned him that it may well be written of the Son of Man to be betrayed...BUT woe unto him who did the betraying...Mathew 26:24 Judas of the tribe Dan is not ;listed in the Sealing of the 144,000

Judas Obeyed Christ and Never betrayed Him. Christ commanded him after he was possessed by Satan. John 13:27 , Luke 22:3 As soon as Judas took the bread, Satan entered into him. So Jesus told him, “What you are about to do, do quickly.” Speaking to Satan... Judas regretted his actions, attempted to repent, and return the silver coins, and blamed himself for Christ's Murder. When Christ Decended to the Land of the Dead, he Released Judas from the grip of Satan. For Satan has No Power over Christ. Jesus took Judas to Heaven. Who is Stronger : Satan or Jesus ? Recall that Christ had a fairly long conversation with Satan, with the Temptations... Jesus also commanded evil spirits to leave the Demon possessed man & they fled into the pigs. (The pigs unfortunately died). Jesus is THE BOSS in all the situations.
Judah Iscariot was son of Simon Iscariot. Not to be confused with Judah who wrote the letter before John's revelation. Old translations did not change their names. Similarly James (who wrote the book of James) is actually Jacob (Jacobus) Some people are trying to corrupt the scriptures by changing names and adding footnotes and headers.If your grandparents had an old bible, go and open it up - you might see some differences. God is not the author of confusion. Jesus identified Judah Iscariot as one sharing bread with the body of Christ. Only God can reveal who that is and that is why we must pray "Deliver us from the Evil One" .. Remember, if we are always confused and not being empowered we must remember what Jesus teaches about who is at the table. God bless you if you are one who struggles.
Unbiblical. Judas did not Betray Jesus. The Bible explicitly says Judas was possessed by Satan & Christ himself commands Satan directly to work quickly. John 13:27 , Luke 22:3 clearly state that Judas was possessed by Satan, who was commanded by Jesus: As soon as Judas took the bread, Satan entered into him. So Jesus told him, “What you are about to do, do quickly.” Speaking to Satan... Judas regretted his actions, attempted to repent, and return the silver coins, and blamed himself for Christ's Murder. When Christ Decended to the Land of the Dead, he Released Judas from the grip of Satan. For Satan has No Power over Christ. Jesus took Judas to Heaven.

When Christ Decended to the Land of the Dead, he Released Judas from the grip of Satan. For Satan has No Power over Christ. Jesus took Judas to Heaven. Remember Christ himself said for God the Father to Forgive them, because they do not know what they do... That would apply to everyone involved in Christ's Crucifixion. Even the GOOD THIEF is forgiven shortly before he is killed... "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, “Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise.”
I think that you are as wrong as others about Judas and only speculating no one knows about Judas until you read the missing book of Judas and why is the book missing.
If God wanted it to be part of the Scriptures, do you not think he would have found it? Somebody had to betray Jesus - it was prophesied but Judas had the opportunity to repent, even after the betrayal. I'd like to think he was repentant but the Bible indicates that he was sorrowful but not reconciled to God, which is a real sadness, and a warning to others...

Either Jesus is Stronger than Satan or Satan is Stronger than Jesus. Judas Obeyed Jesus & it was Satan [possessing Judas' body] which Jesus commands to Work Quickly.

JOHN 10: 1 - 8
When Jesus would teach and preach in Jerusalem, the Priestly class( Sehendrin, Pharisees) would try to stone him, capture him and kill him..But Jesus had a miraculous power to disappear in thin air...Judas who was a Zealot,cultured in Judahism, He became a follower of JESUS.. Jealous ofJesus miracle and works of wonders, he desire to turn him over to the Priest and show him to them by the Judas Kiss...Jesus can easily disappear in thin air and vanishes, but he knew it was his time to be the sacrificial lamb...to be crucified for all the sin of of the WORLD...Jesus life was the payment for all the sin of mankind...JERUSALEM and the Priestly class want to kill Jesus, but the Jewish law have no death penalty...So Jesus had to be turn over to the ROMAN law to be crucified and killed...it's not our will, but " THE WILL OF GOD"...Pray for our Salvatori.....Giorgio Messina......
The law said that if a man
said that he was God..that
he would have to die..even
if He was God..there were
no exceptions..that is called blasphemy..in other words..HE WOULD THEN..AS GOD..
AFTERWARDS..HAVE TO PROVE THAT HE WAS & IS GOD BY RISING FROM THE DEAD..WITNESSED BY ALL..
Jesus raised Himself, but
also His Father & the Holy
Spirit assisted Him..fulfilling in full Their prophecy..spoken by all three together saying
the same thing at the same time: "let Us make Man in Our
image"..Jesus said: "when you have seen Me, you have seen the Father"..not that He & His Father were the same Person..
but both or all 3 were co-equal in Glory & Majesty & Holiness.
Despite the fact that Satan possessed Judas. Despite the fact that once Satan left Judas he felt on overwhelming guilt. Predestination and free will? 🤔😉😆
Which is true?
Judas threw the money into the temple, went away and hanged himself (Matthew 27:5) or
Judas bought the field with the money, fell, burst open there and his bowels gushed out (Acts 1:18) ?
They can't both be true.
Not with that re-wording and ignoring the rest of the paragraph (context), no.
Matthew 27:6, the next verse, explains that the priests recognized the money Judas threw back into the temple as blood money and therefore couldn't remain in the temple (talk about hypocrisy--Judas isn't the only one "acting" here) and therefore bought a field with it where strangers could be buried.
Acts 1:18 references this purchase on Judas' behalf and provides supplemental information: Judas' corpse fell from his hanging and burst open. Since it was a field for strangers, his body, apparently, wasn't tended to. Whether there is any correlation to the sacrificial system and all the cleaning of intestines and whatnot I do not know.
Therefore, the two accounts are complementary, not contradictory. I hope that helps!
I agree with Julian. Matthew's account is that Judas returned the money and the priests were the one who bought the field. Matthew doesn't say what happened, just that Judas hung himself.
Acts gives a more detailed account of the hanging. It goes to the actual field where he hung himself. He probably had been hanging for a while in the hot heat, and the bacteria in his intestines caused his stomach to expand. Then, when he fell (dead) from the rope, his guts spewed out because of all the pressure. Same story, just different perspective. It makes the Bible that much more awesome.
This is also a good illustration of the wages of false or dead religion.
@@west221b what do you mean?
@@katherinehurt5238 I was drawing a parallel between "The wages of sin is death" (Romans 6.23) and the wages of dead religion (Matthew 23.27) concerned with only legalities (outside of the cup/whitewashed tombstones) rather than repentance (change of mind) that brings forth transformation (Romans 12:1-2) through faith (trust) in Jesus (God); cf. James 2:14ff

Would I be responsible in helping to defend Judas?
Judas is in Heaven, He obeyed Jesus in the most difficult mission. John 13:27 , Luke 22:3 clearly state that Judas was possessed by Satan, who was commanded by Jesus: As soon as Judas took the bread, Satan entered into him. So Jesus told him, “What you are about to do, do quickly.” Speaking to Satan... Judas regretted his actions, attempted to repent, and return the silver coins, and blamed himself for Christ's Murder. When Christ Decended to the Land of the Dead, he Released Judas from the grip of Satan. For Satan has No Power over Christ. Jesus took Judas to Heaven.
Judas was Jesus's best friend.
Jesus begged him to betray him.
Whatever Jesus couldn't say to other Apostles, He woud say to Judas.
Poor Judas was just following the orders from Jesus.He had to do it.
He is a Hero.Without Judas there will not be Christianity. Give Judas a Goddamn respect that he deserves !
1John 1:7…the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin 9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
Judas Iscariot confessed his sin (Matthew 27:4), I believe the blood of Jesus Christ has cleansed him of all unrighteousness.
I am forever praising and believing Jesus is the Christ and this is pleasing to God.
It's clear that Judas OBEYED CHRIST, & followed Jesus, & Judas never Betrayed Jesus. SATAN possessed Judas & then Christ Commanded Satan : John 13:27 , Luke 22:3 As soon as Judas took the bread, Satan entered into him. So Jesus told him, “What you are about to do, do quickly.”
Judas, the human, regretted his actions, attempted to repent, and return the silver coins, and blamed himself for Christ's Murder. I don't know what Satan possession felt like to Judas, but it must have been agonizing & very painful ! When Christ Decended to the Land of the Dead, he of course Released Judas from the grip of Satan. For Satan has No Power over Christ. Jesus took Judas to Heaven.
Well Done Good and Faithful Servant. Well Done.

The name Judas does NOT mean "son of waste! Judas is a boy's name of Greek origin. It is the Greek form of Judah, which means "praised."
You’re a silly one
Judas was of the devil ..and Jesus saw him coming John 6:70. Jesus even warned him that it may well be written of the Son of Man to be betrayed...BUT woe unto him who did the betraying...Mathew 26:24 Judas of the tribe Dan is not ;listed in the Sealing of the 144,000
Judas is not doomed.
Judas Iscariot is the first person to publicly proclaim that the innocent
blood of Jesus Christ was shed on account of his sin. Matt. 27:4.
Whenever I read about his sin of betrayal, I also see the blood of Jesus Christ.
God the Father, does not see the sin but only the blood.
I am forever praising and believing Jesus is the Christ, and this is pleasing to God.

Judas Obeyed Christ and Never betrayed Him. Christ commanded him after he was possessed by Satan. John 13:27 , Luke 22:3 As soon as Judas took the bread, Satan entered into him. So Jesus told him, “What you are about to do, do quickly.” Speaking to Satan... Judas regretted his actions, attempted to repent, and return the silver coins, and blamed himself for Christ's Murder. When Christ Decended to the Land of the Dead, he Released Judas from the grip of Satan. For Satan has No Power over Christ. Jesus took Judas to Heaven. Who is Stronger : Satan or Jesus ? Recall that Christ had a fairly long conversation with Satan, with the Temptations... Jesus also commanded evil spirits to leave the Demon possessed man & they fled into the pigs. (The pigs unfortunately died). Jesus is THE BOSS in all the situations.
nice polo
I like this guy but the Trump comment seemed like a cheap shot at Trump. 🙁
ahahaha balut!:)
Judah Iscariot was son of Simon Iscariot. Not to be confused with Judah who wrote the letter before John's revelation. Old translations did not change their names. Similarly James (who wrote the book of James) is actually Jacob (Jacobus) Some people are trying to corrupt the scriptures by changing names and adding footnotes and headers.If your grandparents had an old bible, go and open it up - you might see some differences. God is not the author of confusion. Jesus identified Judah Iscariot as one sharing bread with the body of Christ. Only God can reveal who that is and that is why we must pray "Deliver us from the Evil One" .. Remember, if we are always confused and not being empowered we must remember what Jesus teaches about who is at the table. God bless you if you are one who struggles.
Unbiblical. Judas did not Betray Jesus. The Bible explicitly says Judas was possessed by Satan & Christ himself commands Satan directly to work quickly. John 13:27 , Luke 22:3 clearly state that Judas was possessed by Satan, who was commanded by Jesus: As soon as Judas took the bread, Satan entered into him. So Jesus told him, “What you are about to do, do quickly.” Speaking to Satan... Judas regretted his actions, attempted to repent, and return the silver coins, and blamed himself for Christ's Murder. When Christ Decended to the Land of the Dead, he Released Judas from the grip of Satan. For Satan has No Power over Christ. Jesus took Judas to Heaven.
The pulpit is no place to call out men by name. Shame on you.
Read the Bible. He is calling it like he See's it.
Jesus called out men....you brood of vipers...etc.
manic hairdo but your not Jesus tho
Judas Obeyed Christ, and Jesus commands Satan (possessing Judas) to work quickly. John 13:27 , Luke 22:3 As soon as Judas took the bread, Satan entered into him. So Jesus told him, “What you are about to do, do quickly.” Speaking to Satan... Judas regretted his actions, attempted to repent, and return the silver coins, and blamed himself for Christ's Murder.

Remember Christ himself said for God the Father to Forgive them, because they do not know what they do... That would apply to everyone involved in Christ's Crucifixion. Even the GOOD THIEF is forgiven shortly before he is killed... "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, “Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise.”
I think that you are as wrong as others about Judas and only speculating no one knows about Judas until you read the missing book of Judas and why is the book missing.
If God wanted it to be part of the Scriptures, do you not think he would have found it? Somebody had to betray Jesus - it was prophesied but Judas had the opportunity to repent, even after the betrayal. I'd like to think he was repentant but the Bible indicates that he was sorrowful but not reconciled to God, which is a real sadness, and a warning to others...

Either Jesus is Stronger than Satan or Satan is Stronger than Jesus. Judas Obeyed Jesus & it was Satan [possessing Judas' body] which Jesus commands to Work Quickly.
