If you are a Christian or believe in the Christian Faith, you will instantly think that my title question is ludicris... Judas betrayed Jesus - Jesus was arrested - convicted, and crucified...
YES... all true...
BUT... without his crucifixion, Jesus would not have DIED FOR OUR SINS ON THE CROSS... which is a fundamental foundation of Christianity.
NOW...
We believe that God controls all.
We believe that God is responsible for the birth of Jesus.
We know God gave Jesus the ability to decline to be crucified but he did not go that route.
Did Jesus make that decision or did God?
Similarly...
Did Judas betray Jesus or did God create the situation where Judas had no choice but to obey God and do what he needed to do?
SIMPLY PUT...
God needed Jesus to die on the cross in order for HIS WILL TO BE DONE.
The whole of Christianity revolves around GOD'S WILL BEING DONE on earth as it is in HEAVEN.
Christians are given the choice whether to believe or not believe...
Is today's life on earth the consequence of Christians not really believing what they claim to believe?
Are we like Judas?
