1 | The new "BOOK OF JUDAS"? | Bible general Archive 3 | justme | 170337 | ||
The Big News yesterday was the "Book of JUDAS" that was found. I am amazed at the liberal "Biblical Schollars" and their remarks saying Judas was Jesus' friend. None of us has read the trabslated text, yet so many non religious NEWS REPORTERS are all shouting that Judas has now been picked out as evil wrongly in Christian history. How con we make this into a positive situationto introduce others to Christ? |

Hi Justme, Since the people around me all know I am a Christian, several have asked me about this so-called 'gospel' of Judas. I've told them that I don't believe it to be true, but that I think this is being brought into the limelight now because we are near to Easter, when we remember Jesus' resurrection. This is a time of year people start thinking about God, and the devil doesn't want that. So we have items in the news about this 'gospel', articles stating that Jesus didn't actually walk on water, but that He walked on 'invisible ice'. By this time, the conversation is started, and I can tell them how this document disagrees with the Bible, and why I believe the Bible. We spend one or two minutes on the 'gospel of Judas', and the remainder on the Gospel of the Kingdom. Anything to get the conversation started! :-) Love in Christ, Mark |

Mark: Not knowing what this new "gospel" really says, I wonder if this might have ben a letter by the other Judas that was a step brother t6o Jesus. I pretty much doubt it because the focus seems to be onthe one who betrayed Jesus. This is a wonderful way to open a door to have a one on one study with family, and friends or workers. The evil one is always coming up with more to stir the doubts of skeptics. The evil one just does not get he is doomed! Praise The Father, Son and Holy Spirit! Justme |

Hi Justme, In a nutshell, the so-called 'gospel of Judas' was denounced by Ireaneus as gnostic heresy. It purports to be the account of Judas who betrayed Jesus. It claims, among other things, that Jesus and Judas were in cahoots to get Jesus crucified, so Jesus could be released from His body of flesh. Judas agreed to bear the reproach of being the one to "turn him in", to do this great favor for Jesus. Meanwhile, Jesus had told Judas the "real" spiritual "truths" that He had withheld from the other disciples. One fundamental issue with it is that the Bible declares Judas to have betrayed Jesus, therefore, it contradicts the "gospel of Judas". That leads to examining the credibility of the Bible, and I offer the evidence of that. Earlier today, one of my coworkers walked into my office, and pretty much threw it in my face - "What about the gospel of Judas??? So Jesus put him up to it! You guys have been wrong this whole time!" Praise the Lord, in a matter of minutes I was able to share with him the basic steps to becoming a Christian, and I pray it bears fruit! It just gets worse as we get closer to the end. But they willfully forget that the judgment from God Is coming! Come, Lord Jesus, Come! Love in Christ, Mark |

Dear Brother Mark, Thank you for your post on this current phenomenon coursing through our society. This will afford another wonderful opportunity for someone to write a new book like one that purports to teach Christians how to deal with the DaVinci code. Consequently, everyone will make a lot of money on the thing no matter where they fall on the issue! Imagine... after 20 centuries of careful study of the Word of God, people still think something will be discovered that will "change everything." As you pointed out, this Gospel of Judas was dealt with by the bishop of Lugdunum over 1,800 years ago! What hubris is regularly demonstrated by the world! In Him, Doc |
