ono can you please discuss acts 19.....specifically verse 2..does it take more than just believing to go to heaven.... if you have already do this in another video can you please share a link to that video....thanks
@@raybornclark8617 Acts 19 King James Version 19 1 And it came to pass, that, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul having passed through the upper coasts came to Ephesus: and finding certain disciples, 2 He said unto them, Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed? And they said unto him, We have not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost. 3 And he said unto them, Unto what then were ye baptized? And they said, Unto John's baptism. 4 Then said Paul, John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus. 5 When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. 6 And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Ghost came on them; and they spake with tongues, and prophesied. It is pretty straight forward - they were baptized unto John's baptism, never even heard of the Good News. Paul then tells them to believe on Jesus Christ ( as we know John's baptism is of water, Jesus's is of fire and spirit). 5 When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. (This further proves they never heard of that before) In this verse it is only said "believe on". Since the readers would know what Paul implies, the writer uses only the term "believe on" instead of citing the whole Gospel everytime someone believes on Jesus. That is my take on that. I think a lot of nowadays pharisees do not think of that this way and use the verse "even the demons know of Jesus" and so on, but that is another story. As I said, pretty straightforward - they were normal baptized - they hear the Good News - Jesus's baptism - sealed with The Holy Spirit.
Hey, love your content brother, would you be willing to do a video or share your thoughts on whether a believer will be able to accept the mark? Thanks for all you do and God bless!
My buddy came across the verse of 12 thrones and 12 apostles and asked if Judas went to heaven. That happened last night. You were in the very proscess of answering his question while he asked it. Praise God.
I like how Sam's most used line that "proves" he's right is always "be honest because I know your an honest person." Implying that anyone who disagrees with Sam is dishonest and a liar. That's such a load of 💩
@scottyhamilton3999 well, I mean, he does believe that the Roman catholic church is the closest thing to Paul and peters ministries. So not surprising he'd have the same "my authority over the bible." Attitude.
@@jamesvan2201the fact is the Bible doesn't explain itself to you different people have taken different interpretation of the Bible.Its not a coincidence that no apostolic church believed in OSAS or saved through faith alone this a new liberalized doctrine
@sundiatakeita595 no. It quite literally isn't new. Osas and free grace are doctrines from both Paul and peters ministries and the early church. I can link you to a guy who proves it. The problem is not that "the bible doesn't explain itself." The problem is that the devil is very real, very intelligent, and very persistent. The kjv is the closest version we have to the original text and manuscripts. But satan has his hand everywhere and as so, has inspired godless men to "rewrite" his own version and so there is only 1 or 2 versions that are closest to the real thing, while there are about 20 other versions that change words and definitions. For example, "repent". The word repent has been changed from its original "metanoia". The catholic church (who claims that jesus gave them authority over the bible, the very word of God, and changed the meaning of repent, to "penance" meaning in layman's turns, to make up for your past mistakes. Do good to wipe out the bad you have done. And in that context, the Bible doesn't make sense and loses its power because penance doesn't Mtch up with what the gospel says. The Bible says that all men have fallen from God's grace. Not a single one of us can do anything to earn salvation, let alone make up for our past sins, and therefore, cannot please God. So how then, does the bible tell us to repent of sins for salvation? It doesn't. Metanoia means meta - to change, different, alternate. Noia - to know, mind, or thought. Repent means to change your thought. To change your mind, change what you think. So when Jesus tells us to repent for the remission of sins, he's saying "turn away from not believing in me, to believing in me and you will be forgiven." Or "stop believing in your own works for salvation and turn and have faith in me for your salvation." Repent and it's various forms is in the bible about 115 times. You now how many times "of your sins for salvation" follows the word repent? Zilch! Zero, absolutley none. The Bible does mention repentance of sins, but never does it say "for salvation." Read Matthew 7:21-23 and then John 6:40. Read 1 John 5:3 and then 1 John 3:23. It's very clear. And Paul himself says in romans "I am convinced that no man, nor angel........can take us from the hand of god." (Paraphrased) which logically shows that once you are in God's hands, nothing can steal you away, hence once saved, always saved. Also read roamns 3:10-22. It's all over that book. Don't trust just any book titled "the holy bible". Make sure you know it's the closest to the original. The catholic church has tried for over hundreds of years to stop the word of God from being brought to the world. Ever heard of the "dark ages"? It's called "Dark Ages" for a reason, hint, jesus and God's word is a light to the darkness. Truth can be known. But only to those who diligently and genuinely seek it and want to know. Jesus didn't go to every single person who called out to him. There were many he avoided. He could see what was truly in their hearts. Not everyone who claims to be a christian is actually a christian. Maybe in name only, but that's all. 2 timothy 5 says "having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof." These are the Christians in name only.
judas coulda been saved , had he not committed suicide..... sad to be honest. judas is not the only one that betrayed our Lord. and he alos would not be the only one that woulda been forgiven by our Lord. its just a sad story all together.
@@rev.dr.yvonneray2035 saw a video of this boxer, he wanted to commit suicide, the Lord came to him and took him to hell to show him where he would end up. so yes, suicide does cause you to go to hell. im supposed to believe you over the guy who had Jesus himself take him to hell to warn him that this is wher he would end up had he gone through with it? lol
There's not one verse in the bible stating suicide takes anyone to hell. I don't believe Jesus showed that guy hell. So I believe God's word in the bible - not my word and not this boxer's hallucination or whatever.
Glad you got a chance to address this with Judas. I heard Sam last year telling all sorts of people & sowing division amongst the body. His pride resembles his devotion Blessings & Shalom fam 🫀
As a former Roman Catholic for 57 years, I was hurt and let down by born again Christians (close, intimate friends + a family member) who never shared the gospel with me. I had also gone to non-denominational churcheS for many years and never heard the gospel there either. It took a supernatural event when I almost died for God Himself to lead me to salvation. Not a human involved. I'm trying to say, that I was ignorant in knowledge and arrogant in my Catholicism (taught behaviour - only Catholics go to heaven). So I wasn't hostile to the gospel, just no one took the time to share it with me, nor did I have any idea that what I was taught was a lie and I should seek the truth. God bless each of you. I pray for you and your unsaved loved ones daily.
I get put in my place all the time for sharing the gospel I am by far not an abrasive person and only offer knowledge of salvation I am surrounded by people loving a lie
@@carolmaplesden916 You've done your part, Carol. they have heard the message of salvation. Now pray and watch the working of the Holy Spirit in their lives. I think I may be the only born again in my extended family - catholics, new age, charismatics, atheists. Heartwrenching. I look forward to meeting you. I get a bit of aggression from someone else who denies the Trinity. They won't listen politely but there is an automatic anger response when I bring up the differences between us and certian verses I can't understand from their "oneness" belief. God bless you. I'm praying for you and yours. Donna
That is almost the same story as mine, except I was C of E…I never heard the gospel until 2020! I am now 59 and born again, despite a life of believing in God, but never understood any of it…finally when I heard the gospel, it made so much sense and I was finally set free.
@carolmaplesden916 thank you so much for the prayers. It blows my mind how angry some Christians get when someone doesn't accept their belief, i.e. King James only. If you can't understand the language you are not going to get anything out of it. But the viciousness for anyone who says differently. I get the agression as well from the oneness believers, especially when I ask them why Jesus is talking (praying) to Himself? Boom! fight response from them. Wouldn't they want to be gentle and explain to the one in error to bring them out of Trinity belief? Boggles my mind. Thanks for responding. I'm praying for our unsaved loved ones and our needs. God bless you. Donna
I agree. I like to use a skydiver analogy. A skydiver believes in his parachute. Not that it is real, or exists but he trusts his parachute completely to save his life. The same is with Jesus Christ. We believe IN Him, and we trust Him completely and we rely completely on His work. How can our work purchase life when what we owe is death?
This shows Sam has no clue on eternal security Judas was never a believer to begin with even though he might have done great signs and wonder Also notice even disciples were not able to understand that who was Judas because he was acting and walking just like believers But inwardly he was unbeliever and Jesus pointed out 3 times Yet no one understood it Today if anyone believes in his own ability to work and perform to reach heaven then he is going to hell Christ + works = No salvation Once saved always saved
How did he “set” him straight when they’ve never had a discussion. We’ll see how good he doesn’t do when he steps out of his echo chamber and actually defends his position against some who actually defends theirs.
@@devadasn i dont disagree with you about Sam's tactics but if you are going to call someone out and say that they are wrong about something then you should have the intestinal fortitude to face them and not just do a hit and run....just my opinion....but its also just my opinion Ono thoughts differ from mine on a lot of things but he is a good speaker and i think he is not leading people to the full truth.....
Love your channel! Spirit filled indeed. I pray for discernment on everything, as instructed, and rarely receive immediate confirmation except here! Praise Jesus 🙏 and thank you brother
I haven't even watched the video but I can say from reading the Bible and what I know, he was not a full believer but was one of those people who followed the movement for personal gain. The Bible says you can not serve 2 masters, God and money. He clearly loved money more than he believed.
No Sam isn’t demon possessed, but he has a pride problem. He confesses that Jesus is God, and the only Savior. He also believes in the Holy trinity and only 1 God. Let’s not judge Sam , just know that he is a man with a sin problem just like the rest of us. He actually teaches some very good things , just check what he says to scripture. Watch him debate on his utube channel.
Thank you for these videos, i have to ask if you could possibly do a video on the topics of falling away? or if you have could you link it? ive been struggling on my walk in grace and feel shaken up on verses talking about falling away and am scared of those verses since i dont understand them, thank you and hope you understand❤
It is Jesus‘s job to judge who is saved, and who is not saved. It does not tell us specifically if Judas was saved in the Bible. You have to infer that he is either saved or not saved based on your opinion, and pre-suppositions of how you viewed the Bible, whether you are Catholic,Calvinist, Armenian, Lordship, or free Grace . So honestly, we will not know until we get to heaven.
Also consider jonah 3:10 where it says turning from wicked ways is seen as a work. And we are not saved by works. Also God repented multiple times in the Bible and God does not sin. So repent cannot mean turn from sin. Also the greek shows repent means to change your mind. The thief on the cross did not live a changed life or get baptized by water or confess to a priest. He repented and believed. He changed his mind and believed. Saved by grace through faith, not by works. Once saved always saved. Glory to God!❤
Well I think Judas just think he betrayed an innocent ordinary man at the end. Plus his repentance was worldly he was just sorry he got caught, not rly caring about God.
+@@YakmonSaysItLikeItIs Your faith is justified by your works. For the apostle Paul faith isn't just cognitive belief. . . even the demons believe. . . please read all of Paul's epistles, see 1 Corinthians 13 and Hebrews 11. . . And remember that both Paul and James speak to the justification of Abraham (Romans 4; James 2), so you must reconcile those two passages. Yes, there are exceptions to repenting of sin, but by and large throughout scripture it's almost always used in the context of turning from evil ways. The Greek definition is to change one's mind but in the Hebrew, it meant to turn back. Just look at the context of the passages because many times it's given to the believers to repent. (Acts 19:18; 20:20-21; 26:19-20; 2 Corinthians 7:1, 9-10; Romans 2:4-5; 14:10-13; 1 Corinthians 3:18-23; 12:21; 2 Timothy 2:25-26). Ask, why is it necessary for Christ to intercede for us if there was no need of repentance? “Therefore He is also able to save to the uttermost those who come to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them” (Hebrews 7:25; see Romans 8:26-27, 33-34). If believers are to be made in the image of the Son through the energies of the Holy Spirit then it's obvious that repentance is necessary for those that struggle in the flesh, and it will vary depending on their faith. "Anyone who has rejected Moses’ law dies without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. Of how much worse punishment, do you suppose, will he be thought worthy who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, counted the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified a common thing, and insulted the Spirit of grace? For we know Him who said, “Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,” says the Lord. And again, “The Lord will judge His people.” (Hebrews 10:28-30). The thief on the cross was before the fulfillment of the New Covenant. Christ hadn't yet died and rose from the dead. It's after His resurrection that he commanded the apostles to go out Baptizing in the name of the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit (Matthew 28:19). “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned (Mark 16:15). Repentance and Baptism are preconditions to receiving God's grace, it is an entrance into covenant with Christ. Christians repent and receive Baptism for the remission of sins. No one can forgive sins but God, it's an act of grace. To think that could possibly merit salvation would be a blatant contradiction. . . we do these out of fidelity and love for Christ, in honor of His commandments. “It has been said, ‘You shall not tempt the Lord your God” (Luke 4:12). Saved by grace through faith, working through love (see Galatians 5:6).
I don't say this about many people, because it applies to all sinful flesh to varying degree: Every time I hear Shamoun open his mouth, I see a man full of pride.. manifested as this aggressive contempt for others. Judas Iscariot was literally foretold to betray Christ. When the Lord prays, He proclaims He has lost NONE.. EXCEPT the Son of Perdition, that the Scripture might be fulfilled. Thus however you want to perceive it, you CANNOT base anything off of Judas Iscariot. Sitting here and debating whether Judas was saved, not saved.. isn't even necessary. The entire reason Judas did betray Him, was that He was given over to Satan at the proper time.. because Judas did NOT BELIEVE on Christ. Judas was literally CHOSEN TO BETRAY HIM.. thus, Christ picked him AS the one to fulfill his betrayal and KEPT Judas UNTIL the hour came.. No, Judas wasn't forced to do it (to the Calvinists). It was in his own heart to do it, and he was chosen and kept free of Satan until the right time. God exists above and outside of time, people. We perceive things linearly, God knows all of it and when it came to the life and death/resurrection of Jesus Christ.. The Father worked all things to this end.
@joellim2 I am well familiar with every warning verse that is used in this argument, including this one. Yet if you read the passage, it finds a parallel in what Jesus spoke regarding an impure spirit being cast out of a person.. going through arid places unable to find rest, then finding 7 more spirits more wicked than it and re entering the person.. their fate is worse than before. I have heard the argument that one can "give back their salvation". Yet, what people actually mean, is sin. What people actually mean by this, is what YOU do.. which is contrary to why or how man is saved at all. The commandment to be saved, is to believe on the Son of God. To receive the Gospel of your Salvation, by believing it and trusting in the one who promised.
@@harpuia101 so if after i believe i grieve the holy spirit till i fall into unbelief am i still saved? John15 makes a beatiful picture for us on what salvation is its in christ, so faith places us in him(abide in him) and seal of the spirit (he in us) only those who are abide are saved so i don't call it losing salvation rather it's losing faith cos with losing salvation it means christ went somewhere which john 10:28-30 suggest other wise however losing faith implies failure to abide in salvation hence walking in lawlessness matthew 7:21-23 shows this set of people they have his power(holyspirit i.e he abides in them) however they didn't abide in him and you see his reason you walk in lawlessness i.e you didn't walk/abide in me he only knows those in him. Some will claim it's people that believe in works that came to him i say; 1) If they believed in works they were never saved hence never recieved of the power to do the things they claimed. 2) if the did the works through another power then they also never knew him and hence can't claim the familiarity depicted by the Lord Lord shout
@joellim2 Yes. One is still saved even if they do these things. They simply won't produce fruit. And one cannot do anything without abiding in the Lord. You become useless and worthless. Matthew 7 21-23 is condemning unbelievers who never believed the Gospel. That is the will of the Father, read John 6:40 .. to believe on the Son and receive Eternal Life freely. God literally gave the Gospel of man's eternal salvation and commands ALL men to RECEIVE it (by believing it). The Gospel IS the POWER of God unto Salvation, for all who BELIEVE. Therefore, He doesn't know them. There is only one way that is possible, they were never saved. The Lord will NOT tell ANY of his to depart. Or perhaps you do not believe Him, when he said this; "All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out. For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me." John 6: 37-39 In "no wise cast out" is another way of saying, BY NO MEANS will I cast them out.
The workers of lawlessness, allow me to explain that to you. You are either saved by Grace or under Law. By justifying yourself by your deeds (WORKS literally is YOUR DEEDS, anything YOU DO in your flesh), you are rejecting the Lord Jesus Christ and going about to establish your own justification.. you are rejecting Him, because you reject His precious blood shed on the cross the very payment for your forgiveness. THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY FAITH. By the Law, shall no flesh be justified. Let me explain this: If you are seeking to justify YOURSELF (attain righteousness by YOUR DEEDS), you are NOT justified freely by God. These who approached the Lord in Matthew 7, justified themselves BY THEIR WORKS. The Lord judged them as workers of iniquity, for ANY who seek to justify themselves by the Law are UNDER the CURSE. For it is written: "Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them." Only Christ is worthy; and His bride is worthy because He is.. for the two shall become ONE flesh.
dont forget to pray for our brother Sam that God draws him closer to his heart and opens his eyes and ears that he might see and hear the truth. let us be loving and cast our hate away and pray ask Jesus to move his heart.

@@kM-ij2ly Ironically Satan fought with Michael to take the body of Moses, so people would worship Moses instead of God. Moses has more biblical time than Mary and they are both just regular humans God chose for a purpose.
Judas’ name was written in the book of life, but psalm says his name was blotted out of the book of life. You are can have a relationship with God and fall away. Jesus told his disciples that they will face many trials but he told them this so they would not fall away or be blotted from the book of life
Sam is sharpe you reformed prods need to consider: Matt 16:27 27 "For the Son of Man is going to come in his Father’s glory with his angels, and then he will reward each person according to what they have done." Also Revelation 20 :13 And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Another book was opened, which is the book of life. The dead were judged according to what they had done as recorded in the books. " So it sounds like works and deeds have a role to play.
@OnoDiamante. I have been watching your videos since yesterday. I largely agree with what you teach. However, I do have some questions: What does it mean to "believe in Jesus"? a) If one were to take away a feeling of guilt followed by repentance, if one were to take away expectation that is expressed through a need to fellowship with Jesus Christ through prayer and other forms of worship, if one were to take away adjustment in one's choices and priorities to align with Jesus's character, what would be left of the meaning; to believe in Jesus"? b) Paul says something about this matter in Romans 10:10. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. In other words, confession here is part of the generic term called "Faith" in Ephesians 2:8. One can't obviously confess to themselves. They have to speak out in front of a family or classroom or some other congregation. c) One has to arrive at a point where they know they are hopeless and wretched and that they can't by themselves make heaven, to seek Jesus's righteousnessness. To believe on Jesus therefore should come with accepting Jesus's Lordship and if he is Lord, then the discipleship element naturally comes onto they who believe. These are my thoughts. What is to "believe on Jesus".
Lord lord did we not cast demons do works in ur name I never knew you... this verse tells ya that non believers like Judas will perform works in lords name that never knew him the Lord's name so powefull I believe anyone can perform works his name why catholics other denomination cast out demons his name I could be wrong so don't jump me to bad
True and the Bible also says that gifts and callings are without repentance. The only way to be saved is with repentance so this shows even though Jesus called Judas to follow him and Judas had gifts he still wasn't saved.TC
@@muppetonmeds i forgot about them being without repentance now I really don't question what I thought I use argue with people over this but still questioned myself but always thought the power in his name you could use it without being saved then this verse in Mathews confirmed it but I still needed more an u just gave it to me thank you
I feel like people do this a lot where they take a less clear text that can be confused or manipulated by interpretation and totally block out the clear text of Jesus saying one of you is not a believer one of you is a devil one of you will betray me that’s pretty clear that Judas has never believed. I don’t know why everyone skips the one plus one is 2 and go straight to trigg. We know the Bible can’t contradict it self so why even look for other text to try to block out the one that’s clear. If the Lord said one of you is not a believer that means from the forming of the 12 to the betrayal and to his death he never believed I don’t see how this is confusing
Satan's final attempt is to cloud the mind of believers and make them also doubt the work of Jesus's sacrifice on the cross. It adds fear and doubt, making them believe that they have to do good works because Jesus's death on the cross wasn't sufficient. Now add people's pride on top of all that, causing further divisions. They won't listen to sound arguments because they've already made up their minds that good works are a requirement for salvation...just like any other religion in the world.
Could there be an implied clause in there "Nevertheless, do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven (if you abide in me).” Perhaps not everyone being talked to did believe.
God bless u Ono... ur helping a lot of believer contend for the faith... I hope Charles see this video so he can be strengthened and not entertain Sam the agent of Satan
So i understand that Jesus is speaking to the 70 in this chapter, but it says he appointed them ALSO In the chapter before, he had just sent the 12 out to do the same thing as the 70 So would that not mean, that everything he said to the 70 applied to the 12?

@@seanturner8413 I’ve never debated before and if I chose to, I wouldn’t start with Sam lol. He’s obviously the superior debater. That doesn’t make him right.
Just because Jesus said you will sit on the twelve thrones, doesn't mean everyone was present that would be sitting on the twelve thrones. He could have been talking to the eleven who were there assuming each would understand they would be sitting on their assigned throne but mathus was probably the 12th. Either way putting Judus on one of the thrones would either make Jesus a false prophet since Judas is now disqualified or place Judas on one of the twelve thrones despite the betrayal proving his eternal security. Either way Sam loses.
I really like your content. Not sure how I feel about repenting not being a part of salvation, but maybe salvation is given the moment you have faith 🤷🏼♂️, and that will result in you repenting. I want to figure out if a change in allegiance is required to achieve salvation or if it is a result of salvation, I’m assuming repentance would be a similar argument. I think Jesus saying that the kingdom of God is near repent and believe could be an argument for repentance being part of the process in obtaining salvation and not not an after effect of salvation. I like how you use the King James but honestly late I don’t know if it’s my attention span or if your videos are getting more technical I find myself finding it hard to stay focused when you go through the scriptures. The old English is cool but sometimes it makes me lose focus. Anyway keep up the great work you and several others cleared up James 2 for me.
Well Done I agree. I just started watching Your Videos after watching Your video,where You disagree with Gene Kim. I Think Gene Kin explains How God deals with us at different times,very well. Look at King Saul who lost The Holy Spirit. Ki,was mpointing out hoe we were not always under Grace,which is Why Jesus went to Cavalry for Us. But that beind said, I think Your explanation Of Judas,and The Scripture to back it up was was spot on.
@@YakmonSaysItLikeItIs As much as I'd like to agree, videos are good because you can present a well thought out argument and not risk being overcome with emotion.

For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel: 7 Neither, because they are the seed of Abraham, are they all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called. 8 That is, They which are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God: but *the children of the promise are counted for the seed.* and Galatian 3 29 And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.
@@erickanter I really don’t understand how you can even say that of course his death was good enough Read Read Rev 2 and 3 and tell me why he warns the churches in those Era’s 0:09
I think it would be a good take If the verse of Christ saying their names were written in the book of life and that's why they could do the miracles and included judas was not there. And you can also read Christ knew who did not believe and who would betray him as two distinct people or persons. There were people in his group who did not believe and he knew who would betray him. Plus seeing him recontextualize written in heaven as something different was sad.
*different topic, but using Judas: Did Judas exhibit remorse for what he had done after? If so, does that mean that remorse is not a sign of repentance? If so, then we should not use remorse as a means of giving reassurance of one’s doubts that they are saved? But instead by way of gentle reminder of the gospel it feelings? I want to point this out in order to critique my own thinking.
He laid no smackdown. Judas didn't realize what he had done till after. Thus he hung himself He didn't believe thus he deceived himself. Compare Judas to no one. Jesus even told him, it's better if you were never born.
Even those who are told "depart from me" in Matthew 7 said they cast out demons in His name. The name of Jesus has that power, it doesn't mean the person doing the excersism is saved. Btw, this guy is so rude and overbearing!
Judas had lost everything, as an unbeliever. Judas died had died in his sin, and went to his own place, Acts 1:25. Mathias, a true believer took the place of Judas.
The part of Judas casting out demons, the power is not in him but the name of Jesus. It's also written in the end times many false prophets will find Jesus not knowing them yet the cast put demons in Jesus name. Judas casting out demons doesn't mean he was a believer.
Saying Judas was an apostle is basically teaching that you can loose your Salvation. Saying judas was a saved is basically Saying you can loose your Salvation. Judas was not a true believer. Judas was called for a different purpose. He wasn't a believer. Judas was called to fulfill prophecy. Judas is known as the Son of perdition. Judas is known as unclean. Judas is known as a devil . Judas is a traitor, and was prophesied to be a traitor. Judas had a chance to believe, but he didn't believe. It is written. ◄ Psalm 41:9 the prophecy New International Version Even my close friend, someone I trusted, one who shared my bread, has turned against me. ◄ Matthew 26:23 ► the prophecy fulfilled New International Version Jesus replied, “The one who has dipped his hand into the bowl with me will betray me. ◄ John 13:18 ► the prophecy fulfilled New International Version “I am not referring to all of you; I know those I have chosen. But this is to fulfill this passage of Scripture: ‘He who shared my bread has turned against me.’ ◄ John 13:10 ► New International Version Jesus answered, “Those who have had a bath need only to wash their feet; their whole body is clean. And you are clean, (though not every one of you.”) ◄ John 13:11 ► New International Version For he knew who was going to betray him, and that was why he said (not every one was clean.) ◄ John 6:70 ► New International Version Then Jesus replied, (Have I not chosen you), the Twelve? YET ONE OF YOU IS A DEVIL!” ◄ Matthew 26:24 ► New International Version The Son of Man will go just as it is written about him.( But woe to that man who betrays the Son of Man!) It would be better for him if he had not been born.” Saying it would have been better if he had never been born , Is like saying he is not going to be in HEAVEN. Or how ever you want to put it. WHEN JUDAS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE SHARING THE GOSPEL, CASTING OUT DEMONS, AND HEALING THE SICK. HE WAS GETTING HIS HUSTLE ON.↙️ 14Then one of the Twelve-the one called Judas Iscariot-went to the chief priests 15and asked, “WHAT ARE YOU WILLING TO GIVE ME IF I DELIVER HIM OVER TO YOU?” So they counted out for him thirty pieces of silver. 16From then on Judas watched for an opportunity to hand him over. Yes, I agree that Judas was a disciple of Christ, but so we're many . English Standard Version john 6:64 But there are some of you who do not believe.” (For Jesus knew from the beginning who those were who did not believe, and who it was who would betray him.) English Standard Version JOHN 6:65 And he said, “This is why I told you that no one can come to me unless it is granted him by the Father.” English Standard Version JOHN 6:66 After this many of (HIS DISCIPLES) turned back and no longer walked with him. MANY OF HIS DISCIPLES FELL AWAY. A true believer is saved for all eternity. TRUE BELIEVERS DO NOT TURN BACK. N I V, THE FATHER'S HAND. 1 My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all; NO ONE CAN SNATCH THEM OUT OF MY FATHER’S ’s HAND. KJ V THE SON'S HAND. 2 I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, NEITHER SHALL ANY MAN PLUCK THEM OUT OF MY HAND K J V THE HOLYSPIRIT'S TEMPLE 3 What? know ye not THAT YOUR BODY IS THE TEMPLE OF THE HOLY GHOST WHICH IS IN YOU, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? ( TRIPLE SECURITY, ) ( TRIUNE SECURITY, ) ONCE SAVED ALWAYS SAVED. King James Bible For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's. The true believer will truly believe. The one who stops believing never TRULY believed. ACTS 16:29 Then he called for a light, and sprang in, and came trembling, and fell down before Paul and Silas, And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? AND THEY SAID, BELIEVE ON THE LORD JESUS CHRIST, AND THOU SHALT BE SAVED, King James Bible For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: King James Bible Not of works, lest any man should boast. The bible clearly talks about 1.(ENDURANCE ) King James Bible But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. The bible clearly talks about 2.(Continuing to believe) New Living Translation It is this Good News that saves you if you continue to believe the message I told you-unless, of course, you believed something that was never true in the first place. The bible clearly talks about 3.(Perseverance) New International Version You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised. CONTINUING TO BELIEVE ENDURANCE, AND PERSEVERANCE. How BY OUR STREGNTH OR BY GOD'S STREGNTH . IF IT IS BY OUR STREGNTH IT IS A WORKS DOCTRINE. IF BY GOD'S STREGNTH IT IS BECAUSE HE IS THE SAVIOR. Yes the TRUE believer will do these THINGS BUT NOT TO STAY SAVED BUT BECAUSE HE IS SAVED THE TRUE BELIEVER IS SECURE IN WHAT CHRIST HAS DONE FOR HIM, THOMAS ALSO GETS SENT OUT TO DO THE WORKS, BUT AFTER THE RESURRECTION HE CLEARLY STATED THAT HE DIDN'T BELIEVE. THOMAS DOUBTED EVER SINCE THE BEGINNING, The only DIFFERENCE IS THOMAS CAME TO THE FAITH, HE BELIEVED. English Standard Version john 17:12 While I was with them, I kept them in your name, which you have given me. I have guarded them, and not one of them has been lost except the son of destruction, that the Scripture might be fulfilled.
Tony Evans claims in his devotional book that Judas was Jesus's friend. Clearly false. We are his friends if we do what he commands us, which is to love one another as he loved us. Jn 15. Judas did not love Jesus. I think that's pretty safe to say.
I followed along in my bible as i watched this video. Sam did not make a single valid point. Sam sounds soo good and made his opponent to not look very good BUT if you look at what the text says, Sam didn't even make one valid point.
