Judas Iscariot

Was Not

An Apostle Of Jesus Christ

By

The Twelve Apostles

Many Evidences

At the beginning, Jesus Christ called many disciples. Judas was one of them. They were only disciples and not Apostles. Son of man, truly, Judas was among the disciples. But as our works progressed, he was not punctual. He was not regular and active, from time to time and from day to day. That was why he was easily influenced by the chief priest, Pharisees, Sadducees and Scribes.

As at the time he was one of the disciples, Jesus Christ had not yet appointed the Apostles. And by the time The Twelve Apostles were appointed, they were twelve, and they remained The Twelve Apostles during and after the death of Jesus Christ.

But at the time Jesus Christ appointed The Twelve Apostles, Judas was not among them.

It was the bible authors that created the impression that Judas was among The Twelve Apostles. The fact that Matthias was chosen to replace Judas Iscariot does not mean that Judas Iscariot was an Apostle. He was not regular and active in attendance, and he was more a hypocrite, who sometimes was in the midst of the Apostles, Disciples and Saints; and some other times, was there with the chief priest, Pharisees, Sadducees and Scribes and rulers of the synagogue, gossiping about the teachings and works of Jesus Christ.

When Jesus Christ said, “One of you will betray me,” he was not speaking to the Twelve Apostles, but to the disciples. The bible authors were not there with the Apostles, Disciples and Saints, to know what happened. They were writing what they heard, think, misunderstood or mixed up. Any person who was not there present when an incident took place, can never give a complete and accurate narrations and descriptions of what happened, not even as much as the person who was present and involved in the incident.

As you children of God call the Apostles, if you go into the spirit, you shall see the special spirit and power of the Holy Spirit which the Apostles use do work.

When Jesus Christ selected the Apostles, He knew the steadfast disciples and those who were not steadfast. He chose the Twelve Apostles from among the steadfast disciples. Spiritually, Judas Iscariot did not, and could not, do the works of the Apostles. While we were on evAngelism to various cities and places, he was not among the Jesus Christ and the Apostles.

On several occasions, various works were assigned to him, he was doing the works but he was not punctual, not regular and active. He was not serious enough, not earnest. Even so, till Jesus Christ appointed the Twelve Apostles. He did not do his works to the end.

He did not receive the powers of the Holy Spirit, which the other Apostle received. Even so on the Pentecost Day. And he did not encounter or experience the persecutions of the Apostles.

The disciples were making all the necessary efforts, but Judas Iscariot was not making efforts. That was why the journey was very far for him, and his work was very hard. Besides, the powers of the Holy Spirit which the Apostle received in a day, he could not get the same in many days.

All the teachings and anointings, which Jesus Christ gave the Apostles, Judas Iscariot did not receive the spiritual teachings and gifts; and the various works which we did, he did not do those works.

Judas Iscariot was not observing the rites of holiness, because he had not the Holy Spirit. Just as many people, who go about claiming to be Christians, are not Christians, because they do not observe the rites of holiness. A true Christian is a saint, who abides in the paths of righteousness of God, according to the teachings of Jesus Christ, and by the power of the Holy Spirit. The paths of righteousness includes the laws and Covenant System Of Worship.
