No need to be sorry! Just stand with God. He has all of the answers anyone needs. We really don't always need as many answers as we think we do. More often I believe that we simply want answers.I didn't mean to make my question too controversial people I'm sorry. I just wanted a straight simple answer
Evidently there must have been a cult around Judas Iscariot, and perhaps it still exists: "The [Gnostic] Gospel of Judas consists of 16 chapters which document Jesus's teaching about spiritual matters and cosmology. According to the text, Judas is the only one of Jesus's disciples who accurately understands the words of his master."Why does it matter if Judas was saved or not?
'Then entered Satan into Judas surnamed Iscariot,Does Jesus love Judas?
Hello @Lavender Purple,I didn't mean to make my question too controversial people I'm sorry. I just wanted a straight simple answer
What kind of a nonsensical response is this? Are you trying to promote two gospels and two ways of salvation.So when we speak of them in terms of whether they were saved or not, it does not have the same meaning as it does in relation to ourselves.
You've got it backwards. Did Judas love Jesus? Do backstabbers love their victims?Does Jesus love Judas?

Hello Enoch111,What kind of a nonsensical response is this? Are you trying to promote two gospels and two ways of salvation.
TOTALLY FALSE. Where do people come up with such fantasies.
Two different meanings of salvation. This has confused many over the years, I think!What kind of a nonsensical response is this? Are you trying to promote two gospels and two ways of salvation.
It is indeed about eternal life.He who endures to the end shall be saved is not about eternal life.
Purchased a field? He gave the silver back.Was Judas Saved Or Not Saved?
Hello again, @Lavender Purple,
We are told that Judas, named by the Lord Jesus, 'The Son of Perdition', was 'lost'.
You ask if Judas was 'saved'? If he was he would never have been spoken of as being 'lost'.
* His person and his actions were made known through Old Testament prophecy, as we are told in Acts 1:16-20:-
'Men and brethren, this scripture must needs have been fulfilled,
.. which the Holy Ghost by the mouth of David spake before concerning Judas,
.... which was guide to them that took Jesus.
For he was numbered with us, and had obtained part of this ministry.
.. Now this man purchased a field with the reward of iniquity;
.... and falling headlong, he burst asunder in the midst, and all his bowels gushed out.
And it was known unto all the dwellers at Jerusalem;
.. insomuch as that field is called in their proper tongue, Aceldama,
.... that is to say, "The field of blood".'
For it is written in the book of Psalms, (Psalm 69:25)
"Let his habitation be desolate, and let no man dwell therein:
and his bishoprick let another take."
With love in Christ Jesus
Chris
Purchased a field? He gave the silver back.
Then why did Jesus say it would have been better for him if he hadn't been born?It seems to me that Judas repented.
