PART I. The BIBLICAL PROOF that JUDAS was NOT GUILTY!

  

                             JUDAS ISCARIOT: NOT GUILTY:

THE GREATEST SCREW JOB IN THE HISTORY OF MANKIND! 

My Brothers and Sisters, I hope this book and the earlier chapters that you have read are blessing your spirit. I know that it seems to you that I am attacking the bible from all sides. This I do have to say is very true. 

However, I am not attacking our God at all or Jesus either. I am attacking the false writers who are wolves in sheep’s clothing. 

In our last chapters we discovered the truth that it wasn’t Judas that betrayed Jesus but Peter instead.

Now in this chapter we will learn more about Judas, the man who for over two thousand years has been wrongly persecuted. So let’s begin…

Note: If Christians believe Jesus was supposed to die for our sins, and that Judas was ordained to help carry this out, then why is this man so hated for an act that all Christians claim God ordained? Shouldn't he have been celebrated as a saint instead of vilified as an evil betrayer?

Who was Judas Iscariot?

The gospels are mysteriously silent when it comes to who Judas Iscariot was. There is very little written about him except for one common phrase that they all intensely want us to believe and know, and that phrase is that Judas Iscariot was: 

“THE BETRAYER.”

The bible doesn’t tell us the age of Judas or even the origin of his homeland. 

Since I started researching this chapter I have been trying to find out the origin of Judas’ surname Iscariot. 

The first thing that I had to notice is that Iscariot was not a Jewish or Hebrew name. 

That raised a lot of question in itself. After all, we are told that all of Jesus’ Disciples were Jews. So, is it me or does the name Iscariot sound more Grecian or Roman in origin?  

Now while doing an internet search as to the other opinions on the name Iscariot, I came across many interesting hypothesis on its meaning. 

Some claim that the name Iscariot might mean “man of Kerioth,” which was a city in Judea. 

I’ve also read where others believe that someone may have made a mistake and wrongly transposed two letters from the scrolls and that Judas’ surname may have been “Sicariot.” This word is said to come from the Greek word for assassin or one that is a member of the fanatical nationalist’s party called the Sicarii.” 

So it is more than possible that Judas Iscariot could have been known as 

Judas the Terrorist or Judas the Zealot. Now I believe this is more than likely the truth and there is a great book that actually tells this story from a secret manuscript that was taken from the Vatican vaults by true men of God.

Also, I will show you biblical proof that may support this opinion later on in this chapter.

 WHAT was Judas' "MOTIVE to BETRAY JESUS?"

According to the New Testament, Judas was the treasurer for Jesus and His Disciples. 

Judas being possibly the most educated of the group was responsible for: 

1.   The finances, 

2.   The bookkeeping,  

3.   The dispensation of goods and services to the poor, widows and fatherless according to the Mosaic Law.

This means that Judas was one of the most trustworthy and respected of Jesus’ Disciples. So much so as Judas held and controlled the entire group’s financial resources. Wow, now that is “real” trust. 

PLEASE don't forget this FACT! For we are talking about THOUSANDS of dollars in  

cash, coin, silver, gold and goods!

Jesus’ spiritual message may have impacted Judas more than the other Disciples. I believe Judas was a zealot who loved his part in the ministry so much that nothing else seemed to matter to him. Judas may have heard John the Baptist and Jesus both preaching that the kingdom of God is at hand. 

So if Judas thought that Jesus was the messiah, he would have assumed that Jesus was going to overthrow the Roman Empire and not die for his sins as Peter also may have believed. 

Except for a few Satanic strategically placed passages, there is really nothing in the bible that suggests that Judas had an overwhelming desire for financial gain. 

Which as I said above, if he holds the purse, what would a few measly 30 pieces of silver do for his bank account when you had access to thousands of dollars in Gold at your fingertips? 

Notice this is a common sense question that seems to have never crossed most Christians minds.

However, there are clear verses in the bible that tells us that Peter the true betrayer did desired 

wealth, power and prestige! 

This is the very reason why Jesus became angry at Peter and rebuked Peter and called him SATAN!

Peter had a selfish heart and Jesus let everyone know Peter’s terrible character flaw. 

Peter wanted money but Jesus preached piety and holiness instead. 

Holiness and serving your fellow man went against Peter’s desires and financial portfolio.  

 Since Jesus’ plans subverted Peter’s plans this means Peter had more motive and “opportunity” than Judas to betray Jesus.

Power, prestige and notoriety are great motives for betrayal!

 

There are no passages in the bible where Jesus ever rebuked Judas for anything. 

As we said earlier Judas was the most trustworthy of the group and handled and controlled all of the money and other financial resources. 

So again we must ask:

 “WOULD a meager “THIRTY PIECES” of silver be of any value to Judas?

As you can see the answer is certainly HECK NO! 

That’s like offering someone who has the finances of Oprah Winfrey a meager sum of one hundred dollars and asking her to sell nuclear secrets to the Chinese. 

So as you can see, that ridiculous logic makes no since at all. 

However, we have several instances where Jesus openly rebuked Peter’s actions and opinions and embarrassed him right in front of the other Disciples. 

Embarrassment and ANGER are great motives for betrayal.

As you can see something is definitely wrong with this picture! 

Let’s say that you and I were on a jury in a court of law. After examining the evidence given, you and I would surely have to say that we have “reasonable” doubt when it comes to Judas’ motives for betraying Jesus. 

However with all of the conclusive and overwhelming evidence against Peter, the Greek New Testament gospel ghostwriters still want us to condemn Judas for this cowardly crime? Really? 

I want you to research all of the scriptures again to see if you can find a reason for Judas’ alleged betrayal. 

I’m sorry but you will not find one single verse… Period!

How and when does Judas Die?

The next thing I want to move on to is how Judas allegedly dies? 

Man I tell ‘ya! For a book that is supposed to be without errors we seem to keep finding a ton of them in the New Testament. 

The gospels aren't even on the same page as to how Judas supposedly dies. 

The Ghostwriter Matthew says:

• Then Judas, which had betrayed him, when he saw that he was condemned, repented himself, and brought again the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders, Saying, I have sinned in that I have betrayed the innocent blood. 
• 
  
• And they said, what is that to us? See thou to that, and he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed, and went and HANGED HIMSELF. MATTHEW 27:3-5

Of the four gospels, Matthew's gospel is the only one to say that Judas actually died. This is very peculiar in itself. 

Since Matthew is a copy from Mark, 

• when did this ghost-writer find out what no other writer was able to uncover? Sheesh! Let's go on:

After allegedly betraying Jesus, Matthew claimed that Judas was so full of guilt that he went out and committed suicide by hanging himself. 

Did you get that? He allegedly HANGED himself?

Now the book of Acts contradicts the hanging story altogether! 

The book of Acts tells us that Judas died from internal injuries after falling off a mountain and bursting open on the rocks below. 


I believe he may have been murdered! 

·         Now this man (JUDAS) purchased a field with the reward of iniquity; and “falling headlong”, he burst asunder in the midst, and all his “bowels” gushed out. ACTS1:18

So which is it? 

Did Judas hang himself or leap off a mountain onto the rocks below? 

They both cannot be right people!

Now folks we are interested in learning truth and not invented stories and scenarios that attempt to mask added lies right? Now listen to one ridiculous explanation our own Christian pastors and theologians use to explain away this horrid contradiction:

There is no contradiction here at all because both are true.  A contradiction occurs when one statement excludes the possibility of another. The Second Law of Logic, the Law of Non Contradition, (LNC) says that something cannot be both true and false at the same time and in the same sense.  It is not a contradiction to describe something differently: In fact, what happened here is that Judas went and hung himself and then his body later fell down and split open.  In other words, the rope or branch of the tree probably broke due to the weight and his body fell down and his bowels spilled out. http://www.carm.org/diff/Matt27_3.htm

 Did you get that foolishness? 

Every time these sons of Satan are exposed, they make up a new decree or a new law to cover up their lies? So now there is a second law of logic and a law of Non Contradiction!? Are you kidding me? 


Then after making up this foolishness, the writer had the nerve to claim  this was all facts? Seriously?

This guy calls this foolishness a fact? 

So let's just ignore the facts and close our eyes to what is clearly a bold face lie in all aspects. Good grief!

Several problems arise from the Christian explanation.

 

1.     Judas never dropped from a high place, the passage does not record any mountain cliff.

2.(a.)     Matthew says Judas returned the silver, and hanged himself. Acts says he bought a field and “fell headlong”, showing that he never fell down from a cliff. 

2.(b.) The Acts gives the implication that Judas was thrown ahead, and the impact was so hard that his bowels burst open. There is no evidence that Judas fell vertically, only horizontally (forward), so the Christian explanation does not work.

3. (a.) Here is another problem, the 30 pieces of silver, Acts says he "USED" the silver to buy a field (where he died), 

 3.(b.)but Matthew says he "RETURNED" the silver to the chief priests, and hanged himself. 

There is no purchase of any field, so he obviously never died, except by hanging (Matt. 27:5-6).

4. (a.) There is no reference to a cliff, Judas probably hanged himself in seclusion, and his body was found by his relatives. What are the chances that Judas’ body fell from the ropes to the field below? 

4. (b.) According to Matthew, Judas never bought any field! 

4 (c.) The Gospel of Matthew says the chief priests bought the Potter’s field after Judas was dead (Matt. 27:7-8), 

4 (d.) Yet the Book of Acts says that Judas himself bought the field and died therein (Acts 1:8-9). 

5. If Judas fell from the ropes to the rocks below, he never fell headlong! How can you fall headlong from hanging? This is ridiculous, the legs crashed to the ground first, Judas never fell headlong!

 So As  you can see too many clear contradictions of even their ridiculous cover-up explanations!

I have a better question for you: 

• “How did the Disciples know any of this information about Judas’ betrayal if all of these things were done in secret?”

The answer is simple. There was no way for the Disciples to know what went on behind the closed doors between Judas and the Jewish Council unless one of them was the actual betrayer in attendance at the time! Hint, hint: PETER!

Now this is Key information folks! Let's discover the truth together!

Judas the Scapegoat?

#01. So HOW did the writers of the four gospels discover that Judas had died?

 &  

#02. WHO exactly old them this fact? 

Well I believe none of the Disciples knew of any betrayal of Jesus. I believe this information was a rumor that was once again spread by the king of rumors, Simon Peter:

·         And in those days PETER stood up in the midst of the disciples, and said, the number of names together were about an hundred and twenty, Men and brethren, this scripture must needs have been fulfilled, which the Holy Ghost by the mouth of David spake before concerning Judas, which was guide to them that took Jesus. For he (Judas) was numbered with us, and had obtained part of this ministry. ACTS1:15-17

So as you can, the scripture lets us know that Peter was the one who stood up in the midst/middle of the Disciples and said Judas was the betrayer of Jesus! Wow! 

As you can see, they didn't find out about Judas because of 

“divine inspiration” 

Folks here is another KEY:

The Disciples also did not find out during the additional 40 days that Jesus spent with the Disciples after His resurrection. 

Oh, my! Think about that last point? 

Jesus spent 40 ADDITIONAL days after his alleged resurrection and yet he never told them Judas was his betrayer? REALLY? 



Clearly then the Disciples were instructed by Peter only! 

So as you can see, Peter was the source of the deception! 

 Now remember I told you Peter was the key? 


I want to show you something very illuminating about these entire events.

Now remember we listed above all of the holes in the theologians explanations? 

Now there is one more reason why things don't add up.

#01. The “field of blood” or “Potter’s field” does not exist in Matthew's version of event  

#02. Acts does not mention any “rocks”, but merely a field Judas purchased. 

Why would Judas hang himself on a cliff?  Also, Judas’s body never fell downward but “headlong”, which means forward. Judas was alive before his “bowels gushed open”, 

he must have been murdered!

What!? Get out of here man!?

I know you are thinking I must be crazy. However, again, 

"If a rope breaks folks, gravity would drop the person feet first, not head first! 

But A-ha! If someone tosses you off a mountain, then of course you would go head first!

So only the MURDERER: 

would know that a person would have fallen head first from a mountain right?

So, folks tell me, Out of all of the Disciples: 


"WHY" is Peter the only person that has all of this information?

It is simple. Peter murdered Judas when Judas found out that it Simon Peter who actually betrayed Jesus. 

There is a great book which gives all of these events in great detail. Click on the link below and read the book 

                   Jesus: The Rise of the Nazarene

 http://www.amazon.com/Jesus-Rise-Nazarene-Derrick-Patrick/dp/1469777657/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1434364382&sr=8-2&keywords=jesus+the+rise+of+the+nazarene

 In this book you will learn everything that the Vatican and the sons of Satan have hidden from you and I for centuries. A must read book for everyone seeking truth.

Let's get back to our topic:

Now while all of the other Disciples are escaping Jerusalem in fear for their lives, the bible says that 

Simon Peter did not run away! Huh?

Now why do you think that is? 

It is because Peter had absolutely nothing to fear! Duh! 


Peter was allowed to follow behind Jesus and Peter was allowed to warm himself by the huge fire along with the soldiers who captured Jesus! FACT!

Did you get that? 

Peter is standing side by side with the captors of Jesus! 

• You should be outraged after learning this truth! 

After Peter celebrates Jesus’ capture with his new friends look at what Peter does next:

·         And they that had laid hold on Jesus led him away to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders were assembled. 

     But Peter followed him afar off unto the high priest's palace, and WENT IN, and SAT WITH the SERVANTS to SEE THE END. MATTHEW 26:57-58

That’s right, with all of the security and secrecy surrounding Jesus’ illegal capture, 

Peter the co-conspirator of Jesus' was allowed to go inside of the high priest’s inner sanctum and sits

in the “V.I.P.” section and watch his betrayal of Jesus first hand! 

Unbelievable! 

So do you still think it was Judas that betrayed Jesus? 

Peter knew exactly what happened to Jesus because he was responsible for it. 

This is why Peter knew the exact amount of money, allegedly thirty pieces of silver that was supposedly paid to Judas.

Again, THINK about it? 

If all of this is done in SECRET, How does Peter know the EXACT amount of money/silver there is? HOW FOLKS? 

a.) JUDAS didn't tell him?

b.) The HIGH PRIEST didn't tell him?

c.) JESUS didn't tell him?

d.) GOD didn't tell him?

Peter diverted all attention away from his treachery by blaming Judas. 

Peter told the Disciples that Judas’ betrayal of Jesus was fulfilling a prophecy spoken of by David. (See Psalms 41:9). 


When you read the Psalms verse that Peter speaks of, you will not find a futuristic prophecy anywhere in the whole chapter! 

So as to how Judas supposedly died, I believe Peter’s words in the book of Acts is probably more accurate. Mainly cause we know Peter left the True Disciples of Jesus to follow Paul's twisted ministry.

Judas may have found out the truth about Peter’s treachery and threatened to expose him to the other Disciples. 

I believe it is more than possible that Peter then kills Judas by throwing him off of a high cliff onto the sharp ocean rocks below. 

Now don’t quote me on this scenario, this is only my opinion of possible events. 

However, it is very clear that Judas a man who held all of the MONEY, including large amounts of Gold and silver had no reason to betray Jesus; he had no reason to commit suicide. 

Now you know…

30 pieces of silver lie?

We are told that the high priest allegedly paid Judas thirty pieces of silver to identify Jesus. This is ridiculous because Jesus was a “celebrity!” Jesus was so well-known and popular that the people supposedly, worshiped him. 

Now isn’t this the reason why Christians celebrate “PALM SUNDAY?” Remember, in Christianity we say that the people were supposedly worshiping Jesus and saying “HOSANNA” to the highest right? 

We all know that Jesus also preached inside the temple; another valid point! This means that the high priest and all of the Pharisees and Sadducees already knew exactly who rock star Jesus was! 

So except for a need for an imaginary villain, there was no need for Judas in this story. 

Is the light starting to come on yet? 

Come on people, the high priest wouldn't pay Judas just to point out Jesus because everyone in the city knew who He was! 

Jesus preached His sermons in open fields so that everyone could hear His messages. Again, the 30 pieces of silver payment lie of Matthew is stolen from a non-prophecy passage from the book of Zechariah. 

Zechariah's story had nothing at all to do with betrayal during Zechariah’s lifetime or later on concerning Jesus’ life either. 

They had to make Jesus lowly in our eyesight so that we will be more sympathetic to their story and believe their lying versions.

• Every hero needs a villain. 

Superman needed Lex Luthor, Batman needed the Joker, Spider man needed the Green Goblin and so, Jesus needed Judas Iscariot! 


Now you can see just how far the sons of Satan will go to write a deceiving false story.

According to Acts it is Peter who drops the proverbial “DIME” on Judas to the other Disciples.  

As we all can see not one other Disciple or writer knew of Judas’ alleged betrayal until Peter convinced them of this act.

So now we see why there is limited information in all the other gospels about it. They simply had no clue whatsoever. Remember these men were uneducated fishermen and Peter even tried to use the Old Testament Psalms as proof. 

If you continue to read all of the verses on this subject you will start to come to a very unsettling revelation about the New Testament stories. They are all fabricated lies to turn us away from Jesus’ true message about His God and Father YHWH. 

Now I want you to take some time now and analyze the information in the box below:

1.)   In Matthew 27:6 the writer claims the High Priest couldn’t take back the money from Judas because it was blood money. So they bought a field called the field of blood? That is just stupid! If these were deceitful men who plotted against Jesus in “secret,” who would know about the money in the first place? People, that is just plain stupid! The whole plot was supposedly done in secret right? Duh?

2.)   Peter contradicts this story and in Acts 1:18, Peter claimed that Judas with his new found riches bought the field of blood himself making both stories in the bible truly suspect now?

3.)   Why would Judas want to buy a field in the first place? Was Judas planning on retiring and becoming a farmer?

4.)   If Judas bought a field with his alleged 30 pieces of silver, how was he able to give the money back to the high priest? How did Peter know what Judas did in secret? Duh!

5.)   None of the gospel writers had a valid hypothesis as to why Judas would betray Jesus at all?

6.)   Just like President Obama, Jesus was known by everyone in Jerusalem and read from the scrolls in the actual temple? So why would the high priest need to pay anyone at all to identify someone they already knew? Stupid!

7.)   In John 18:2-9 Jesus voluntarily stepped forward to identify himself to the mob making it completely unnecessary to have Judas in the story at all. There was no need for Judas to kiss Jesus or point him out.

8.)   Peter is the only source of all of this information! How convenient!

So my Brothers and Sister, we have learned in great detail that the gospel writers may have been pawns of Peter throughout all of this! It is very clear now that unlike Peter, Judas never had a reason to betray Jesus. 

Now you know the truth and the truth shall set us free…

In the next section we will discover that Judas Iscariot’s voice may still be able to speak from the grave directly from the New Testament gospels. 

 I pray that you have been blessed by this chapter. Continue your research for the truth. Shalom/Salaam/Selah
