Judas-Good guy or Bad guy!

Sallers · 2007-12-17 23:21:56

With the vast amount of new books out there now on the traditional bad guy Judas, Im curious as to how many of you actually agree with the traditional way that he is portrayed i.e. as the 'betrayer' ?

Nothing wrong with that, PDN, as long as you allow each of us to take the same liberties in interpreting the Bible.

You can interpret the Bible whatever you want. I can't allow or prevent you from interpreting any book how you choose, can I?.

I have no problem with anyone who is genuinely seeking the truth and comes up with an honest interpretation that is different to mine. I am happy to discuss with such a person. Maybe they will learn from me and maybe I will learn from them.

If, however, someone deliberately seeks an interpretation to suit their own ends then that is their problem, not mine. I have little interest in entering into a discussion with them since they don't want to know the truth anyway.
