Acts 1:17
(17) For he was numbered with us, and had obtained part of this ministry.

Luke 9:1-2
(1) Then he called his TWELVE disciples together, and gave them power and 
authority over all devils, and to cure diseases.
(2) And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick.

Luke 22:3
(3) THEN ENTERED SATAN INTO JUDAS surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of 
the twelve.
Whether this speaks of a demon or of Judas' decision to serve his own pleasures, I know not.  
What he did was evil.  Did a demon force him to do it or did he make the decision on his own?   
Acts 1:20
(20) For it is written in the book of Psalms, Let his habitation be 
desolate, and let no man dwell therein: and his bishoprick let another take.

Acts 1:24-25
(24) And they prayed, and said, Thou, Lord, which knowest the hearts of all 
men, shew whether of these two thou hast chosen,
(25) That he may take part of this ministry and apostleship, from which 
Judas BY TRANSGRESSION FELL, THAT HE MIGHT GO TO HIS OWN PLACE.
More than likely,  Peter is the one who made this statement and the others agreed.  Is this 
statement an opinion of the assembly in the upper room or is it's source revelatory?  I do not know. 
And so the point is this  -   we do not know the destiny of any individual.   God through Christ 
is the judge.   Because we cannot know the heart of man, we cannot judge man.  I am not 
arguing that Judas was saved  --  only that we do not know the end of the matter for sure.   

Revelation 21:14
(14) And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and in them the names 
of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.

Peace be with you.
David Miller.
