Judas the Betrayer and the death of Jesus
We have just released part 2 of our video project on the Sovereignty of God. And we have released this part of the project for free! Why? Because I felt that the message was so important that I didn’t want any hindrance I wanted to get as wide a viewing as possible.
Did Judas receive communion?
My post on Judas Was Judas Predestined to be Lost? has been challenged. This post is an answer to that challenge.
Does Matthew conflict with Luke about Judas?
In my post about Judas and the last supper, Colin Maxwell, a Calvinist responded to my post, although not responding on this blog, but on his twitter account @weeCalvin.
Was Judas predestined to be lost?
Is Judas a problem for your theology? He can be a problem if some of your beliefs come from tradition and not from the Scriptures. In this article, I would like to discuss the full Scriptural view of Judas and ask you to test your own understanding against what the Scripture reveals.

Habitual sin and salvation: honest uncertainty, but the answer is always to press toward Christ rather than despair
20 Questions with Pastor Mike (Episode 11)
Jesus calling Judas friend at the betrayal (Matthew 26:50) is likely both literal and ironic simultaneously.
20 Questions with Pastor Mike (Episode 31)
About the Apostles & Judas’ Position: I’ve heard it taught that the Apostles were being presumptuous when filling Judas’ empty position. Why did they choose to apply Psalm 69: 25 and Psalm 109:8 to the situation?
20 Questions with Pastor Mike (Episode 52)
Why Can I Be Saved, But Not Judas?: Heartbreakingly, I have betrayed Christ for things worth far less than 30 pieces of silver. What is fundamentally different between Judas and me? Why can I still be saved, but he couldn’t?
20 Questions with Pastor Mike (Episode 90)
What if Election Isn’t about Salvation?: What are your thoughts on election being about service and blessing rather than salvation (i.e., Judas was chosen by Jesus to serve Him but obviously wasn't saved)?
10 Questions with Mike Winger (Episode 15)
How were Private Events Recorded?: Do you know how biblical authors recorded events, conversations, and moments that transpired despite being in private or in a one-man scenario, perhaps like Judas' death?

Seasonedgrace, As far as ordination, I do believe that it is good to have a body confirm the maturity that they see in us but it isn’t necessary. A pastor is a pastor not because he/she has been orda...
You may wish to check out what Deborah Gill has to say on spiritual gifts. She has a DVD that is very good. My understanding is that the only “office” is one of the 12, which is why Judas needed to b...

Once again, no Scripture and mere conjecture and opinion and emotions. This is what I usually run into on these feminist theologian/egalitarian sites. I had hoped this one would have been better ….. s...
Mary sat at Jesus’ feet, which is rabbinic idiom for being a disciple. There were many others. A male replaced Judas. This was a one-time event. The 12 were all male to map to the 12 patriarchs of Is...

Here is the terminology I use and how I see it. 1. There are the 12, apostles, and Scripture authors. 2. The 12 are apostles, but an apostle is not necessarily one of the 12. Indeed they can be apo...

1. Peter is one of the 12, the leader of the 12. However, the 12 are 12, not 11, and are not Paul as he discusses himself later. It is not the faithful of the 12, it is simply 12, so the 12 being di...
