If Judas was chosen to become an apostle, then he must have been a good person.
The bible does say that Judas repented..well..repented in a way. Let me find that bible passage, I know it's in here somewhere...
Here it is! Please feel free to look up: The gospel according to Matthew, chapter 27:3-10 'Judas hangs himself'.
And here's a bible passage to contribute to this thread: 'The mission of the twelve'
The gospel according to Luke, chapter 9 --> The entire passage.
Yep! The apostles were given the authority by God to repel demons and cure diseases. They were obviously qualified, no?

Did Judas have a choice? Yes! We all have a CHOICE... but there would not have been a CHOICE is God did not present evil as one of the two WILLS we can do! We have a choice to CHOOSE whether we want to follow God to holiness, or Satan to sin. Just like Adam. But God knows who will choose HIM and who will not.
Jesus knew Judas was going to be the traitor. Jesus pontd him out and here is the WORST thing to know.... The son of perdition, is what Jesus calles him in John 17. Did Judas have a choice? YES! He did not have to betray Jesus, it was a choice made by SATAN but he followedd SATAN and NOT God.
And after the sop Satan entered into him. Then said Jesus unto him, That thou doest, do quickly.
Judas made his choice LONG before Satan entered into him. Judas was only the VESSEL for the betaying spirit of SATAN.... Why did Peter not betray Jesus? Or why was it not John or James? How come it was Judas Iscariot? Here is why... In Mat 26 we can see the jelousy and the greed for richness and fine things in Judas Iscariot. When the woman put the expensive oil on Jesus, the disciples suggested it could have been sold, but straight aftrer that Judas went to the chief priest for a deal on the life of Jesus.
See it happened when the purse he carried could have been fattened by the oil. Judas chose there that money was more valuable than Jesus. And right there Judas went LOST. But then Jesus and God knew he would choose SATAN over Holy Spirit. So I guess God knows who will be bearers of SATAN in the flesh, and who will be bearers of Holy Spirit (GOD) in the flesh. Remember time does not exist for God. Only for us!

1) they had to be witnesses of the fact that Christ was Resurrected.
Acts 5
31"He is the one whom God exalted to His right hand as a Prince and a Savior, to grant repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins. 32"And we are witnesses of these things; and so is the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to those who obey Him."
Luke 24:48
You are witnesses of these things.
Acts 9:17
Then Ananias went to the house and entered it. Placing his hands on Saul, he said, "Brother Saul, the Lord--Jesus, who appeared to you on the road as you were coming here--has sent me so that you may see again and be filled with the Holy Spirit."
1 Corinthians 9
Am I not free? Am I not an apostle? Have I not seen Jesus our Lord?
2) what great change in Scripture?
3) you still have not explained what you mean by this : Re: Paul was not qualified to be an apostle
Dispensationalism.
okay
CHECK.
alright.
so, you are KJV.
i'm guessing Scofield.
Dispensations; Paul called to a different ministry.
and we have distinctions in times God is dealing with men.
"We never read about the new man in the four gospels of Christ's earthly ministry and we certainly never read about a kingdom of priests in Paul's epistles, there is a distinction for a reason, "the mystery of his will" (Eph 1:9)."
okay
still there, LovePink ?

LovePink; is the Church a parenthesis in God's Plan? the "Mystery"? the change no one saw coming?
what is your understanding of this change of plans that came about with Paul.
you appear to connect it to this:
"For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect." 1 Corinthians 1:17
you are aware that Paul did baptize people, aren't you?

Another odd thread from Pink.
The Apostle Paul had the most amazing conversion. He had been in the business of Murdering Christians and then Jesus supernaturally revealed Himself to Paul. Paul wrote a large portion of the New Testament but now Pink denies that Paul is qualified to be an apostle.
