Repentance doesn’t mean you are saved
Matthew 27:3-5
New King James Version (NKJV)
3 Then Judas, His betrayer, seeing that He had been condemned, was remorseful and brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders, 4 saying, “I have sinned by betraying innocent blood.”
And they said, “What is that to us? You see to it!”
5 Then he threw down the pieces of silver in the temple and departed, and went and hanged himself.
Height of Presumptuous Pride
- Judas could have waited few more hours, for Jesus.
- Jesus would have hanged for Him, that He didn’t need to hang
- People used to say
- “I rather die rather than receive forgiveness”
- “I rather pay myself than someone pay for me”
