2. John 17 The Great High Priestly Prayer of our Lord!

3. John 17:6-19 John 17:12c: Judas Iscariot, The Son of Destruction!

4. Judas Iscariot was never saved! Acts 1:25; Mat 26:24-25

5. In grace Jesus gave Judas every opportunity for salvation, but Judas, by his own volition, chose not to accept Jesus as His savior.

6. Judas was “unclean” which is a metaphor for being unsaved. John 13:11, 16-18

7. Titus 1:15, “To the pure (KATHROS), all things are pure; but to those who are defiled and unbelieving, nothing is pure, but both their mind and their conscience are defiled.”

8. Judas repaid our Lord’s gracious honor by kissing Him on the cheek, to identify Him as a criminal, as prophesized in Psa 41:9. Mat 26:14, 47-50, Mark 14:43-45; Luke 22:47-48

9. Notice Jesus’ reply, in Mat 26:50, as He still calls Judas, “friend.”

10. IV. Judas Iscariot reaped what he sowed, unrighteousness; as do all who reject God’s plan of salvation. Hosea 10:13; Gal 6:7-8

11. Hosea 10:13, “You have plowed wickedness, you have reaped injustice, you have eaten the fruit of lies. Because you have trusted in your way.”

12. Judas Iscariot reaped: 1. Demonic influence and possession. Luke 22:3; John 13:2; 27

13. 2. The eternal title of betrayer. Mat 26:20-25; John 13:26-30

14. a. His name is always listed last among the lists of apostles with his ominous identification. Mat 10:2-4; Mark 3:16-19; Luke 6:13-16

15. Acts 1:14, “These all, (the remaining 11), with one mind were continually devoting themselves to prayer.”

16. 3. The title of Devil. “DIABOLOS” John 6:64; 70-71

17. DIABOLOS means, “to bring charges falsely, slanderous, accusing falsely.”

18. 1 Tim 3:11, “Women (wives of deacons) must likewise be dignified, not malicious gossips (DIABOLOS), but temperate, faithful in all things.” Also in 2 Tim 3:3; Titus 2:3

19. 4. Becoming a type of the Antichrist, being called the Son of Perdition (Destruction). John 17:12 cf. 2 Thes 2:3

20. 5. Physical death. (According to God’s will and plan, not his own). Mat 27:5, Acts 1:16-20

21. 6. Spiritual Death. (Being assigned “to his own place”, that being Hades it self). Acts 1:25 cf. Mat 26:24

22. Judas had remorse for his actions yet did not come to repentant salvation. Mat 27:3-5

23. Acts 1:25, “… this ministry and apostleship from which Judas turned aside to go to his own place.”

24. Judas’ end was the end of an unregenerate man. Prov 24:20, “For there will be no future, (ACHARITH – eternal life), for the evil man; the lamp of the wicked will be put out.”

25. 1 Cor 6:9-10, “Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate (male homosexual or prostitute), nor homosexuals, 10 nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, will inherit the kingdom of God.”
