Did Judas commit an unpardonable sin?

Answer 1

Did he really commit a sin? Or did he really play an integral role in history, acting as the conduit for the circumstances leading to Jesus sacrificing Himself for all of humanity? He may have been simply playing a part that was meant for him in order to facilitate our salvation.

Answer 2

There are many different takes on this. In the book of John, Jesus stated that Judas had been chosen long before he had been born. In that it was Judas' destiny to fulfill prophesy.

Another take is what is sin? Sin is when you try to do things on your own without God. Judas try to bring the rule of the Mesaiah down. By forcing Jesus' hand, he knew that Jesus could call down 10,000 angels to help him if he needed. But Judas was mistaken as the rest of the disciples. He thought the Kingdom that Jesus spoke of was physical. But is that unpardonable? No. If it was, then every disciple would have been guilty.

The unpardonable sin is accepting credit for what God had done and stating that God had no part in it at all.

Answer 3

Yes: It wasn"t sucide.Man can become Sick, or something can
come along;
In the case of Judas He along with the other eleven Apostles
were given power to visit every town and cast out demons,heal sick.These men, Two men each were given this Anointing Power by Jesus. Jesus called Judas the "Son of Perdition"
Also Spoke it would have been better if Judas hadn"t been Born.

Judas entered into Apostasy ,When He trampled Jesus

Answer 4

It seems that it is not THE unpardonable sin; though suicide often is considered as also unpardonable. But the question, I think, is whether betraying Jesus wold be UNPARDONAQBLE.

But Judas was not betraying Jesus at his command; rather, 'since you have determined to do it, .....'.

It would seem that it would have been possible for Judas to have repented and been forgiven. HOWEVER, it seems that he did not; for Jesus said "better for that one that he had never been born".

Answer 5

No, the Bible only mentions one unpardonable sin and Judas did not commit that. He was fulfilling what was told of thousands of years before his birth.

Answer 6

The sin of Judas Iscariot also was unforgivable. His betrayal of Jesus was the willful, deliberate culmination of a course of hypocrisy and dishonesty. For instance, when Judas saw Mary anoint Jesus with costly oil, he asked: “Why was it this perfumed oil was not sold for three hundred denarii and given to the poor people?” The apostle John added: “[Judas] said this, though, not because he was concerned about the poor, but because he was a thief and had the money box and used to carry off the monies put in it.”

Soon thereafter, Judas betrayed Jesus for 30 pieces of silver. True, Judas felt remorse and committed suicide. But he was not forgiven, since his deliberate, persistently selfish course and his treacherous act reflected his sin against the holy spirit. How appropriate that Jesus should call Judas “the son of destruction”

In a prayer at the end of his earthly ministry, God’s Son reported about his followers: “When I was with them I used to watch over them on account of your own name which you have given me; and I have kept them, and not one of them is destroyed except the son of destruction, in order that the scripture might be fulfilled.”

By here referring to Judas as “the son of destruction,” Jesus indicated that when Judas died, there was no hope of a return for him.

Answer 7

It is interesting to note that Jesus knew Judas was going to betray him, and yet still shared the first Lord's Supper with him - the communion that most people try to deny to all but a select few. Jesus opened that up even to Judas, and said "Take this is my body,..."

So no, I think Judas was forgiven. Even before he repented. That's what grace is.

Answer 8

Yes, he did, because Jesus hadn't died yet to be able to forgive all of his sins. If you read that book 'Dante's Inferno' there is a part in there where they say that the deepest, and worst level of hell is that for the mutiners, or betrayers. And that they have Judas' head staked right here in the middle.

Answer 9

No Judas did exactly what he was suppose to do. If you remember the last supper Jesus foretold exactly what was going to happen. Judas betrayal and Peters denial.

Answer 10

Yes, Judas Iscariot knew that Jesus was the Son of God, he saw the miracles Jesus preformed and knew his teachings. Since he knew Jesus was the Son of God and he betrayed him to death he in reality committed blasphemy against the Holy Spirit just the same as the Pharisees who knew God had sent Jesus and Jesus told them that they would be in Gehenna, not Hell, but Gehenna which is everlasting destruction. LibChristian/ He may have celebrated the Pasover meal but was not included in the new covenant Jesus had with his Apostles at his memorial he set which is known as the last supper where they passed the wine and bread, symbols of Christ's blood and body.
