"Take nothing for your journey" - True Culprit behind Judas


Around the Imperial Palace, Tokyo

True Culprit behind Judas

There are always true perpetrators in any criminal incidents.  Even behind a man who has committed suicide, there is often somebody who has pushed him to a corner and a predicament.

In other words, if a man has family members and friends who would protect him from those evil men, he would be saved.

In the case of Christ Jesus, there must be also such a true culprit who slyly led Judas to betraying his Master, although the true culprit was not identified in the Gospels.  From the beginning, it is not even described in the Gospels why Judas betrayed Christ Jesus, although it was suggested that Judas acted on his own motive.  But there must have been somebody that had given such motive to Judas.

Of course, ultimately it is Satan that was behind the incident leading to the crucifixion of Christ Jesus.  But Satan must have used somebody that could influence Judas.

It seems to be a minor matter to Christ Jesus who was behind Judas, probably because He must have been well aware that Satan was finally responsible for Judas' act of the betrayal.

That is why we should not easily blame any criminal who had a direct hand in a crime.  True culprits must be protected by Satan.  But Christ Jesus said that everything hidden would be publicly exposed.

So, until we discover truth of the story of Christ Jesus and the crucifixion, probably there will be no Second Coming of Christ Jesus, because it is thought that we cannot be fully prepared for welcoming again Christ Jesus without knowing truth of His First Coming.

Therefore, to make His Second Coming true or accelerate it, we had better study the Gospels to fully understand the most known story over centuries or 2000 years of Christ Jesus as well as Judas.
