Re: Did Jesus "need" Judas? Did Judas "betray" Jes

1) God did not need Judas to betray him, there is a shadow set forth with this, the plot had been set long before the betrayal. All Judas did was divulge the location of Jesus, this situation was kind of like an "et tu Brute" type situation. There is no doubt without Judas it would have been fulfilled but with Judas we see the constant vacillation man faces. The hypocracy in Judas' heart is even more profound. Judas then hung himself, he wasn't banished to hell for selling Jesus, he even knew Jesus was aware of his upcoming betrayal. The fact is that Judas did not create the sentiment towards Jesus, he merely exposed his location.

2) God didn't need Judas, God didn't need Mary.

The irony is that Judas just had to wait a month before it wouldn't have mattered.
