@jmlidea - Judas condemned himself. He was a full-grown man that knew what he was doing. It doesn't make sense to say that about a child.......

That God would condemn anyone even before they exist is absolute pure evil. But I have to follow his logic, so when I have kids of my own, I'm going to disown the one who eats from my plate, cast him into a pit and burn his body. Think that sounds evil? Well, God did it first!!

@hemet92544 - God chose "...the man Christ Jesus..." to redeem man: and He also chose a man to betray the Son of God.

Devils/demons cannot repent because they were created perfect and without the commandments, even BEFORE God introduced Grace. Man was created AFTER the commandment and after Grace: to be guilty of sin, but to be saved in Grace!

@blushgrl16 - God did NOT condemn Judas: Judas condemned himself by not repenting in a Godly repentance. Judas repented not of his deed, but that his deed (betrayal) condemned Jesus to the cross! He was so sure Jesus could not be condemned, for Judas knew there was no sin in Jesus.

Jesus, however, was condemned for claiming (rightfully) that he was the son of God: this Judas could not foresee.

"Repent and believe God" is the essence of the Gospel.

When the World surrounds you, I'll make it go away

Paint the sky with silver lining

I will try to save you, cover up the grey

With silver lining

I feel like i myself am Judas, and i have no idea what to do about it or what i believe in anymore

To me I can relate to Jesus because he seemed to give people second chances and forgave easily but god he seemed like a preety strict guy like condeming judas to hell

[hemet92544]

Our Lord Jesus Christ clearly indicates that Psalm 41:9

"Yea, mine own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, which did eat of my bread,

hath lifted up his heel against me." -

was a prophetic reference to the fact that one of his friends,

one of his disciples would betray him.

Jesus will forgive a sinner, but nowhere in the bible does it say he will forgive a devil, on the contrary, every devil Jesus cast IN a human........did Jesus ever say TO a devil after he cast it out, go and sin no more? or follow me? did any devil ask Jesus for forgiveness? or did THE PERSON that the devil was IN ask Jesus for help......

[hemet92544]

how can Christ have forgiven him, calling him Friend in the garden, when Jesus said in John 6:70 that Judas was a devil? Jesus will forgive a devil?

[hemet92544]

Matthew 10 Jesus give ALL the 12 to cast out Devils. so if your saying Judas was saved and fell because Jesus gave him the right to cast out devils, wrong, Jesus never said a devil cant cast out another devil, he said Satan can't cast out Satan.
