None of this would happen without Judas. He was the catalyst of all this.
Don't you see? Judas is the hero!
[b]Jesus went up on a mountainside and called to him those he wanted, and they came to him. 14 He appointed twelve[a] that they might be with him and that he might send them out to preach 15 and to have authority to drive out demons. 16 These are the twelve he appointed: Simon (to whom he gave the name Peter), 17 James son of Zebedee and his brothe ...[text shortened]... Jesus put Judas there so Judas would betray him. I think most of us would call this entrapment.
Originally posted by @kellyjay He betrayed innocent blood, your version of hero is different than mine.
So you think it would be better that the roman soldiers never would catch Jesus to bring him to the tribunal? Is it this you believe?
Then how in hell would Jesus sacrifice his life for our sins? That makes no sense to me...
Judas the Hero solved the problem. And further - Jesus understood and forgave him. But you don't, meaning that you think Jesus was wrong to forgive Judas the Hero!?

He betrayed innocent blood, the fact Satan and all of those against Christ wanting Jesus dead and they had their way! Shows in no uncertain terms that God gave them what they wanted to kill Jesus to show them for who they are, and still kick their a$$, shows LOVE is stronger than hate!

Someone apparently needed to betray Jesus, or the crucifixion would not have happened.

God / Jesus chose Judas.
I agree with your post.
Who told you Jesus needed to be betrayed? This again goes back to who was making the choices, if God reported out what everyone was going to do on their own, they own it!

Originally posted by @checkbaiter God did not send Judas, Satan did. He thought would now he defeat God by killing the Christ. But he failed miserably.
Is this your opinion that Satan sent Judas the Hero? Or could you please give me the reference from the bible that, without interpretation, shows just that?
I think you try to rewrite the story with fake information based of your opinion.
