Not By Works

Their is Godly sorrow. And remorse (personal pain caused by guilt which can happen to anyone)

Judas was a theif from the time he started. He was called the son of perdition (the name also given the antichrist) He never believed Jesus was messiah (If he did he never would have turned him in for some money) and if he repented after he did this, He would probably not have killed himself. He probably would have repented because he Knew Jesus as messiah could not be killed. Or remember he would be turned in killed and rise again 3 days later. The fact he did what many people do and took the easy way out to pay for their pain, and take their life in their own hands.

The son of perdition is satan himself, Just as satan entered Judas in the end, He will enter the king of rome/Europe) when it is time,

The difference is judas just turned in christ, the beast will rule the world . Both end up being destroyed, judas by a rope, te beast by Christ himself.

That does not make one saved.

He never accepted his savior.. He did not even believe Jesus came to take his sins. He tried to give his money back because he knew they were gonna kill him, He was trying to save his life..

Again, any non believer can do this.

My point of reference was the suicide of Judas Iscarriot rather than true repentance.

The HS uses the bible (inspired by him) and pastors missionaries and even us.

Apart from the HS, we could never understand the word, no matter who taught us, The HS works through all areas..

Remember the things of God are foolish to those who are not his, The HS has to help us understand these things since we can not on our own (they are foolish) if after this, we deny the word and reject christ, we have denied or rejected the HS

He denied knowing christ, or being a part of Christs inner circle, out of fear for his life.

Thats different than denying Christ as the redeemer of your sins and rejecting his salvation.

So. do you reject female pastors? How about for women?

I've had several lady friends think Joyce Myers is great and the 4 square and Salvation Army churches where the pastors wives shared the pulpit.

I used to attend church with a woman who absolutely adored Joyce Meyer and became furious when others tried to warn her about the false teachings of Joyce Meyer.

The 'Sally' (Salvation Army ministers to ex-addicts and prostitutes. Who could be more appropriate on womens issues than a woman?

I understand but does a woman belong behind a pulpit now days. Are you familiar with Jan Crouch from Trinity broadcasting?

I am familiar with Jan Crouch. In regards to women being behind the pulpit -

The difference between Judas and Peter makes for an interesting study.
I believe the difference is that Peter knew AND confessed WHO Jesus is.
I LOVE Peter because I take comfort in the fact that although sometimes I forget who I am, which is a Child of the One True King, which leads me to falter and stumble, I DO NOT forget who Jesus is. And that is I think what happened to Peter. He denied knowing Jesus. He DID NOT recant his confession that Jesus is the Son of God.

Interesting, that many times we falter in what is our fleshly strength not weakness. Here is Peter, the COURAGEOUS one who walks on water, who moments before was ready to take on the world with his sword on Gethsamane, and now is reduced to fearing little girls that accuse him.

Now, what was Judas repenting of? Betraying INNOCENT BLOOD, NOT betraying the Son of God. Judas NEVER acknowledges WHO Jesus is. He calls Him Rabbi, Teacher,and Master but NEVER Lord because he NEVER believed Jesus was the Son of God.

I don't think so.

I’m my church the only time a woman gets behind the pulpit is to read scripture, sing, share their testimony or share about their missionary work (no preaching). We do have a woman’s group that just started up again and a woman from my church spoke at that. I’m conflicted with the whole woman preacher thing. Many women are very knowledgeable in scripture, but if the bible tells us woman shouldn’t/ cannot be preachers/ pastors, well.....

Point is..we dont KNOW...lol..my points bout remorse n salvation are totally seperate in my posts bout judas even though some want to intertwine them..
