After I posted some rather strong comments last November/December about your behavior towards myself here, I was banned for a month, and the posts deleted that are very relevant!

I mention Gill and Henry to show that there is no bias in what I say! I cannot be accused of quoting only from those who agree with me! A T Robertson has clearly demonstrated from the Greek, that Judas was present for the Lord's Supper. I know that some Reformed/Calvinists will argue against...

pity you deleted the post on this after you blocked my account!

So Luke, who was a first-class historian, was WRONG? Explain Luke's account. Here is what John Gill, Matthew Henry, two very strong Calvinists, and Dr A T Robertson, the Greek scholar say: "From Luke's account it appears most clearly, that Judas was not only at the passover, but at the Lord's...

Never mind, he is well wrong on John chapter 13, is it is the Passover meal and not the Lord's Supper. the fact that Luke records Judas as taking the Lord's Supper, and Jesus saying to him, "My blood shed for YOU", cannot be denied. John Gill and Matthew Henry agree that Judas did take the...

My friend, it is not I who said this, but God Incarnate! Read the account in Luke 22, then look this up in Henry and Gill, and you will see that Jesus did indeed tell Judas, "My blood shed for YOU". Was He not telling the truth here?

Here we go... Then what about the fact, that in Luke chapter 22, the Lord Jesus tells Judas, as He does the other 11, "this is my blood, shed for YOU"? John Gill, Matthew Henry and the Greek scholar, A T Robertson agree that Judas did actually take part in the Lord's Supper. If Jesus' death were...

can you remember last November/December, when I posted from Luke that Judas part took of the Lord's Supper, and that Jesus told him that He was to die for him? If I remember correctly, you asked TCassidy if this were true, that Judas took the Lord's Supper, and he said yes?

Not so! As I have shown more than once, Jesus died also for Judas as per Luke 22, he was not the elect nor saved!

For such an important doctrine, Scripture is essential. I can see nothing in the New Testament to suggest there is any division between the "death" of Jesus Christ, and His "blood" shed on the cross. I am aware that people like John MacArthur seem to try something here, but it really amounts to...

Have you looked at Romans 11:28-32? "As touching the gospel, they are enemies for your sake: but as touching the election, they are beloved for the fathers' sake. For the gifts and the calling of God are without repentance. For as ye in time past were disobedient to God, but now have obtained...

I will add here, Ephesians 1:4 reads, "For He chose us in Him, before the foundation of the world, to be holy and blameless in His sight. In love", which says nothing of God's "electing to salvation", but Paul saying that we as Christians must "be holy and blameless" in God's sight. "He chose...

I don't see in either passage you give, any "election to life"? I know this is used (or rather, misused) by some for theological purposes, but the Reformed doctrine of "election" is not taught here! Show me where I am wrong here?

Indeed! The problem we have here, is not so much what the Greek in the CONTEXT actually means, but what it says "theologically", first and foremost! This of course is the wrong way to approach the Word of God. For those on here who really know any Greek grammar, it is plain that often times the...

so, you separate the "blood" of Jesus from His "death"? How so?

My point being, not that Judas was saved and therefore in heaven, but that he was part of the 12 in every respect, as one "chosen and ordained" by God. For those who can accept it, Luke 22 shows that Jesus told him that He was to die also for him, which shows beyond any doubt, that Jesus' death...

Did you know that there is a textual variant for this verse, and the evidence for both readings is almost equally balanced? In which case it should not be used for any definite doctrine either way. ἀπαρχὴν] B F G P 075 33 81 256 326 365 1573 1739 1881 1912 2127 2464 itc itdem itdiv itf itx itz...

John 6:70 tells us, "Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil? " Here we have the Greek word, "ἐκλέγω" (to pick out for oneself, choose), which is used to include Judas. This word is also used in Luke 6:13, "And when it was day, he called unto him his...

Can you show from John's Gospel, where he records the institution of the Lord's Supper? John chapter 13 is the Passover Meal, which was held before the Lord's Supper. Luke's Gospel, written by an historian of the highest authority, very clearly says that Judas was present for both meals. I refer...

Expositor's Greek Testament "Act_13:48. ἐδόξ. τὸν λ. τοῦ Κ.: δοξ. τὸν Θ.; frequent in Luke and Paul, cf. 2Th_3:1 for the nearest approach to the exact phrase here.—ὅσοι ἦσαν τεταγ.: there is no countenance here for the absolutum decretum of the Calvinists, since Act_13:46 had already shown that...
