HD-"Protestants believe the Holy Spirit will lead people to all truths"

kosta-"...do you think Judas thought that Satan was his guide?

Each person is to examine themselves to see if they are in the faith. You can only do this by researching this information out; not by relying upon what someone tells you. Judas wasn't interested in the message of Christ. The little that we do know about Judas from scriptures is that he was a thief who stoled out of the general funds. This wasn't the message our Lord Jesus was preaching. Had he examined himself, he would have reached that conclusion except we know that Judas was preordained for the purpose of betraying our Lord.

A converse question to yours: Do you think our Lord Jesus prayed that Satan wouldn't get a hold of Judas in the same way He prayed Satan wouldn't get a hold of Peter?

Yes I do. His foreknowledge of Judas's intention did not change His love for him. Do you pray that those who commit evil or are abut to commit evil would repent?
