There are so much injustice done to Judas. It is about time for us to change this error. Here are ten reasons why Judas should be in heaven.
1. Judas passed the test; he was one of the twelve. He is therefore willing to sell everything he owns, doesn’t mind not attending his parents funeral, or sleeping anywhere when the evening comes.
2. Benefit of the doubt. No one really knew what his real motive in betraying Jesus was. If he wanted him dead why did he commit suicide?
3. If the beliefs of those misguided are true, i.e. crucifixion was absolutely necessary for our salvation, then Judas is a hero for without him there could be no crucifixion.
4. He was not actually happy of what he did, hence he committed suicide.
5. He must be repentant of his actions otherwise he should be rejoicing when Jesus was crucified.
6. He was created in God’s image and likeness. Where else could one be if he is God’s image and likeness.
7. God loves him unconditionally. Jesus prepares a mansion for the twelve and that includes Judas Iscariot.
8. God always say “I forgive.”
9. His suicide could be his way of saying, “I’m sorry.”
10. If in the hour of death a person is sorry for his sins then he is saved. Again if he was regretful and contrite of what he had done he should have not killed himself.
