St. Augustine: "Judaism, since Christ, is a corruption; indeed, Judas is the image of the Jewish people: their understanding of Scripture is carnal; they bear the guilt for the death of the Saviour, for through their fathers they have killed Christ."

So what? Jesus was going to die. God the Father had already ordained that it be so. The Bible is full of pictures and words that tell us this would happen to restore fallen man to right relationship with the Father.
It does not matter who it was that was there the day Jesus died. It was meant to happen.

Even Augustine gets to be wrong once in a while.

Is there a source for this on the web? This is a great quote. This is a perfect response to missionaries.
