JT:
I have no problem with these scriptures Kevin, what are you saying? That
Judas was not an apostle with the other 11, and that he did not go out preaching
and healing with them?
John 6:64 tells us that Jesus knew from the beginning who would betray him
and John 6:66 says that there were many other disciples who left him. I
believe that Hebrews 6:4-6 applies to Judas. He is one who knew the Lord,
ministered under the anointing, and then turned away; but this does not prove
that his doctrine was false while he was out there. Do you have
a problem with this?

Jn 6:70 Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one
of you is a devil?
Act 1:21 That he may take part of this ministry and apostleship, from which Judas by transgression fell, that he might go to his own place.

Which is why I also brought up Judas Iscariot. God used Judas to teach
doctrine. Comments?
JT: Yes Judas was a genuine, chosen, and empowered apostle; he
was treasurer and a successful preacher and healer. I have no reason
to believe that he was anything other until late in his ministry when
he became a thief and an adversary.
