3The following questions, which have been in my mind for over fifty years, will be answered by a careful study of the Bible. Was Judas predestined to betray Jesus? Did Judas have a choice about whether or not to betray Jesus? Could he have done differently than he did? "The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance? (2 Peter 3:9 NKJ) Does this verse apply to all except Judas? Did Jesus choose Judas as an apostle to betray Him? Was Judas ever in a relationship with Jesus? What about the three "prophecies" in the Old Testament which are applied to Judas? Is there more than one type of prophecy? After Judas betrayed Jesus, could he have repented? Was Judas a villain or a victim? Dean H. Harvey recently retired from full time pastoral ministry, and presently travels and teaches in various venues.
