Judas' Betrayal

*CORRECTION: HALLEL 113-118, NOT 116-118.* Ever thought you’d never betray Jesus? Peter thought the same thing. In this episode, we dive into one of the heaviest passages in Scripture—Judas’s betrayal, Peter’s denial, and the Last Supper. But here’s the uncomfortable truth: we’re all Judas. We all betray Jesus for way less than 30 pieces of silver. From understanding the true meaning of the Lord’s Supper to wrestling with why Jesus’s blood wasn’t shed in vain, this message will challenge how you see your own faithfulness to Christ. We also unpack particular redemption, God’s sovereignty, and the security we have as believers. In This Episode: * The real reason Judas betrayed Jesus (and why we do it too) * What the Last Supper actually means (it’s not transubstantiation) * Why Peter denied Jesus four times, not three * How small betrayals lead to bigger ones * The security of Jesus’s finished work on the cross Chapters: 0:00 - Intro 1:34 - The Context: Passover Week 4:10 - Judas’s Betrayal & What We Betray Jesus For 9:03 - Preparing for the Last Supper 11:00 - “One of You Will Betray Me” 15:25 - The Difference Between Lord and Rabbi 17:12 - The Last Supper Explained (Not Transubstantiation) 23:31 - The Hillel: What Jesus and the Disciples Sang 26:31 - Peter’s Denial (Actually Four Times) 30:31 - Particular Redemption: Jesus’s Blood Wasn’t Spilled in Vain 35:38 - After the Amen: Where Have You Betrayed Jesus?
