1 | Reasoning ? | John 12:6 | Mommapbs | 38764 | ||
Greeting Kalos! I am a bit confused by this post. What is your objective here? You referenced: "Then saith one of his disciples, JUDAS ISCARIOT, Simon's son, which should betray him, 5 Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred pence, and given to the poor? 6 This he said, not that he cared for the poor; but because he was a THIEF, and had the bag, and bare what was put therein." John12:4 "Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, nor THIEVES, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God." Corinthians 6:9-10 You reasoned: A. Judas was a THIEF. B. Nor THIEVES . . . shall inherit the kingdom of God. C. Therefore, Judas shall not inherit the kingdom of God. Now, following your logic chain: Anytime I "get even" or take revenge when I have been wronged, I am a THIEF. I have stolen from God; this is because revenge belongs to Him (Romans 12:19 - vengence is mine, I will repay)! Therefore: A. I am a THIEF B. Thieves shall not inherit the kingdom of God. c. I will not inherit the kingdom of God. If I followed your line of reasoning (thinking in orderly,rational ways to arrive at conclusions) about Judas, I too would be condemned. How glad I am to be following Jesus! The Key word in 1 Cor 6:9-10 is "unrighteous." The unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God. I am a sinner saved by Grace. I wear the righteousness of Christ, even though I still sin. I know whom I have believed and I am persuaded that He is able to keep that which I have committed unto Him! Jesus said, (referring to Judas) "not one of them perished but the son of perdition, so that the Scripture would be fulfilled." John 17:12. Yes, let's reason together! Though my sins be as scarlet - He makes me white as snow! Is. 1:18 Please clarify your post! Blessings, Mommapbs |

Nowhere in my post did I call YOU a thief or condemn you. I wouldn't think of it. :-) Blessings to you! P.S. You are not following my logic chain. But we need not break fellowship over that. |
