Sin of omission (Judas and Christ)

(1/3) > >>

Dawidos:
I realised how illogical and blasphemous Christian doctrines are. My statement is based on Judas Iscariot example. Probably many of you heard about the sin of omission present in Catholic teaching. If not, you can read about it at this link (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omission).

The Roman Catholic Church believes that

a) a man has free will
b) a man is responsible for his actions
c) a wicked man is send to Hell

In short, Judas was sent to Hell and is damned forever because by his own free will he has decided to betray Jesus Christ, so he has commited the worst kind of sin you could imagine.

In the Scriptures (a few translations are below) we read



New International Version
As soon as Judas took the bread, Satan entered into him. "What you are about to do, do quickly," Jesus told him.

New Living Translation
When Judas had eaten the bread, Satan entered into him. Then Jesus told him, "Hurry and do what you're going to do.

English Standard Version
Then after he had taken the morsel, Satan entered into him. Jesus said to him, “What you are going to do, do quickly.

New American Standard Bible
After the morsel, Satan then entered into him. Therefore Jesus said to him, "What you do, do quickly.

International Standard Version
After he had taken the piece of bread, Satan entered him. Then Jesus said to him, "Do quickly what you are going to do!

King James Bible
And after the sop Satan entered into him. Then said Jesus unto him, That thou doest, do quickly.

English Revised Version
And after the sop, then entered Satan into him. Jesus therefore saith unto him, That thou doest, do quickly.

 
If Catholic teaching is true, then sorry but our Lord Jesus Christ is a sinner! He is guilty of sin of omission. He should have behaved like a true saviour, tried to reason Judas, cast Satan out of him etc. He allowed this man to sin, to be damned forever, to lost chance of salvation. He should have done everything to stop him , because he could and ought to do it.

Thank God that we know it was God's will all along, that Judas was an important part of His plan and that Jesus knew his father meant all evil (including Judas betrayal) unto good - I love how LRS explained that by Joseph's story :) :)

Every church doctrine contradicts the Scriptures, just like the example you use.

When shown these contradictions, they think it is an attack on their faith and that's why they become so defensive. What religion has done to our sanity....

grapehound:
Amen Marques.

David, thank you for that.
A nugget of a contradiction.

Great point, David. Yet another piece of evidence to add to the mountain of evidence already discovered here against the teachings of Babylon. Thanks for sharing.

Yes, great point indeed Davidos, I always felt a bit uneasy when reading that passage, something just didn't feel right about it... and as you pointed out, God chose Judas to fulfill the Scriptures and Jesus did not rebuke him but only told him to hurry and do what he must - and he is just ostracised by the church....

God's Blessings
