Judas: An Enigma

Can Judas serve as a warning to believers? Alistair Begg explains that while Judas followed Christ, he never truly gave his life to Him. His vision of Jesus’ purpose and ministry were different from God’s, and he couldn’t reconcile his desires with the Father’s plan. Following his own priorities opened the door to temptation from Satan—and he chose not to resist. If our vision for our life is shaped by Jesus, though, we will have a faith that perseveres.

Scripture: Luke 22:1
Preached: April 6, 2003

    This is an OUTSTANDING message! Much conviction was brought upon me.
  • So true about saying, "That can never happen to me." Please be careful, my fellow Christians, it can happen in the wink of an eye. Living with sinful choices that last a lifetime; I hurt a lot of people.
  • Great message and definitely an eye opener. Sad but enlightening, powerful yet subtle. Not cool though when you see so much of Judas in yourself that it makes you wonder…
