All About GOD

All About GOD - Growing Relationships with Jesus and Others

I have a question, and maybe I am misinterpreting the message, but I need to get clarification on it.

Jesus, during the final meal, after making known His betrayer said in Mat 26: 24 "The Son of Man is going just as it is written of Him; but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would have been (more profitable and wholesome) for that man if he had never been born".

Am I mistaken if I say that here Jesus has actually condemmed Judas for what he would be doing? Yet, it is written in Zech 11:13 (first part of the verse) "And the Lord said to me, Cast it to the potter [as if He said, To the dogs!] - the munificently [miserable] sum at which I [and My Shepard] am priced by them!"

Here already the Lord has said what the price would be for the deliverance of our Saviour.  It goes to reason that this was all already planned as we know, for the fulfillment of Jesus to thus perish and rise again, for us all to be saved.

Why then, if it was all predestined for it to happen, was Judas thus condemmed for what he was supposed to do?

Help pls

God's blessings be on you all.

Linda Ruth,

Muchas Gracias for the kind words.

Lord Bless,

Ello Ello Ello What's all this then? I better go and get a cup of coffee before I start reading then....... man I had so many emails on this discussion overnight - don't sleep Linda for fear your emails become colossal......
Cinnamon in that coffee is a lovely touch Linda Ruth.. maybe a bit girly for some of the guys here.. but I recommend it highly. :-)
Actually, my wife already has me hooked on that.
hahaha.. See.. :)
You all should try a drop of Rum Essence........dreamy........
Whoops! I am a teetotaler. I guess you could like in the olden days call me Roy-T. However, I am like one of those with the Salvation Army that pledges not to drink but does not consider it wrong. Hey, did you know that we have a famous teetotaler in politics today? I bet you could never guess who. Nope, it's not President Obama but his vice-president Joseph Robinette (or something) Biden. I bet that surprises you.

Roy
Its cake essence Roy - its not actually alcholic - its just the flavour....... so no worries about that one.....
Whew to that one, Linda.
Roy,
i like tea too.. I really like making fresh ginger root tea with dried fennel seeds ground in a morter and pestle.. That is one of my favourites. I make it frequently. :-) It's got to be fresh ginger though...the dried stuff won't cut it. :-)
Now, you are way over my head. I am completely lost.
If you really want a man’s coffee, you should try the Louisiana coffee with chicory , it will not only grow hair on your chest (men) but probably on the door knob as well. Remember though; If you are crazy enough to drink it; you can’t pray for mercy.
Would be like praying for no calories in biscuits and gravy. Hummm.
By the way you can get it here in Kansas Roy.
Actually: I’m not a coffee drinker: though the Bible does say that….. if I drink any deadly thing, it will not hurt me….. Mk.16:18
