“A Lady,” Clonmel. We do not, by any means, consider that Judas was a believer. Our Lord calls him “A devil,” (John 6) and “The son of perdition” (John 17). How could you think him a believer, in the face of such plain passages? The case of Judas is constantly referred to for the purpose of impugning the doctrine of final perseverance; but, inasmuch as he was not a child of God, but “a devil” and not a saved person, bet “the son of perdition,” we cannot see why he should be adduced for any such purpose. As to why such an one should be sent out to preach and work miracles, it is not in our province to say. God had His own wise end in that matter, and He will make all plain.
