Judas got 30 sheckels, $84 today, give or take, to betray Jesus. Did you know that when Judas saw what was going on he tried to give the money back, but they wouldn't take it and let Jesus go? He then threw the money into the temple then went and hanged himself. What does this say about him? Did he have regret, did he not mean for this to happen? Maybe he was ashamed of what he did?
I guess I ask this because I've been thinking about redemption, not just of Judas, but in many situations. I wonder if maybe Judas wasn't evil, he made a mistake, as so many of us have, but his mistake led to the greatest example of God's grace? Was he just used as a tool, then?
I have no idea what my opinion is, but I would value the opinions of others. Please, let's all be respectful of each other!
