Judas sold Jesus because he was tempted by the devil and he listened and chose to act on what the devil urged him to do. e chose to sin on his own accord, as we all do. Interesting that Jesus did not reject Judas in any of this encounter. But Judas probably thought that e could not receive forgiveness, because it says he repented and returned the money. This hopelessness of not being forgiven most likely made him determined to follow through with suicide. If he had waited until after the resurrection, he may have realized that Jesus was ready to forgive him, if he believed in Jesus.
Judas betrayed Jesus for money, because he was a sinner. He had a choice, he made the wrong choice.
We are all born sinners, but we don't have to continue to sin, because sin is the wrong choice.
Romans 5:12
"Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:"
Once we hear the gospel of Jesus Christ we now have the same choice - as Judas, we can choose Jesus, or the world. The world consists of money, power, material things, and many ways to sin.
Matthew 6:24
"No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon."
I choose God, and hope and pray that you will do the same. Stay close to your bible.
