And how, pray tell, was Judas to perform said exercises. He hung himself.

Respectfully, as a new poster, I'd like to say that there are some mysteries of God we will never know in this life.

Who is man to say suicide is unforgivable? God sees into every mans heart, He sees more than we do. How many that commit suicide are truly in their right minds? Would a suicide delete even every act of an otherwise righteous mans life?

I believe Judas is forgiven, if only because Judas was necessary to Gods plan (so was the King of Egypt. Again, Gods mystery). Judas Was remorseful, his heart was heavy with his betrayal. Most human beings have felt that way at one time or another.

Judas could not forgive himself apparently.

I agree with your point about suicide but when you say you believe Judas was forgiven.

How do you know he hung himself out of remorse rather than fear?

I'm not remembering the scripture related to Judas death at the moment.

Welcome to Fr.
