We were reading mathew today, and im still confused why judas betrayed jesus. i could understand if judas was led by greed, but then he hangs himself. and then there's the issue of why judas needed to betray him in the first place, not like jesus himself would have been hard to find at the time, since he was preaching literally everywhere he went.

Actually, according to a plain reading he was what we would refer to as a demigod. His Father is God...His mother was human. The Son is divine, but is not "god in the flesh".

I think Ignatius wrote that James, (Jesus' half brother) was indistinguishable from Jesus.

My advice...do not add to the requirements of salvation set forth in Scripture. It does not say anywhere that you must acknowledge the Messiah as "god in the flesh" for salvation.

You are from below; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world. I told you that you would die in your sins; if you do not believe that I am he, you will indeed die in your sins.

Plus, everything I wrote is from a "plain reading!" You didn't refute a single point. Get with the program.

This debate has been going on for 2000 years. We are not going to solve it on poal. I obey the Messiahs voice. I venerate Him. Hopefully one day I will sit on His throne with Him.

He had choices, and so do we.
