Had Judas repented, I believe he would have had a very moving testimony of God’s love and mercy. His experience shows how satan can oppress someone (or even posses someone) to the point they will lose all hope and commit suicide.

Condemnation will kill you if you don’t repent and get cleansed by the Blood of Jesus.

Way off topic. Sorry for the digression.

No problem. I opened up the "off" direction a bit myself when pointing towards what I though was a witty comment made by another.

As for Judas ---without quoting you but much agreeing nonetheless...it did not take long for condemnation to sink in for Judas, it seems. Almost immediately he went to throw the "fine price" back to those whom paid him to betray the Christ. Ouch.

You know the scripture. I will reference for others sake's Zechariah 11

12 Then I said to them, “If it is agreeable to you, give me my wages; and if not, refrain.” So they weighed out for my wages thirty pieces of silver.

13 And the Lord said to me, “Throw it to the potter”—that princely price they set on me. So I took the thirty pieces of silver and threw them into the house of the Lord for the potter.

Poor Judas. Things did not work out well for him...
