Uh Oh. Assumption.
I assumed Judas would be remorseful - as I hope I would be.
If I were Judas, I would not commit suicide from fear, because I would fear the eternity of death experienced through betrayal more than a life filled with remorse.
If Judas had chosen life, redemption would be more assured.
Well, I guess that settles the matter.
Oh, I see....yeah, hoping people make the right choice at the time of death is an easy emotion to get wrapped up in. It does help comfort us to think others we know about will be in heaven too.
I'm not sure Judas qualified...someday we will find out though.
