Derek, I see you as very respectful and the fact that you are willing to have a respectful discussion on areas that you are not sure about, shows a lot of strength of character. Now, there are several issues on this discussion that can be addressed. 1. Was it possible for Judas to have repented at the time that Jesus called him the “son of perdition”? 2. Was Judas the “son of perdition” before he was created and thus a “son of perdition” in his mother’s womb? And if he would have died in his mother’s womb, where would he have gone? 3. Are babies who die in their mother’s womb or after being born but still as infants, subject to hell or does the Scripture address their state? Can we find Scriptural backing to answer these questions? I believe that the Scripture does address these questions and so there will be lots to dialog about. Since this post is about Judas let’s start with Judas and the possibility of his repentance. I am going to present what I see clearly from Jesus’ inspired words and I would love to have feedback, questions and/or challenges. I will not have much time tonight so what I start, I may have to finish later tomorrow or even the next day. I am attending a webinar this evening and preparing for a bible study that I am teaching tomorrow, so I am multi-tasking. I am also going to see if I can add a screen print into the comment section. I have not tested this out yet with my new blog software. More to come shortly.
