Would Jesus Forgive Judas? - Episode #37

Judas Iscariot is remembered as the greatest betrayer in history. He walked with Jesus, witnessed miracles, heard every sermon, and still handed Christ over for thirty pieces of silver. But what if there's a deeper question hidden within his story? Could Judas have been forgiven?In this powerful episode, we explore one of Christianity's most challenging questions. We compare Judas and Peter—two disciples who both failed Jesus, both experienced crushing guilt, yet whose stories ended very differently. Was Judas' betrayal truly unforgivable, or was his greatest tragedy that he never gave himself the chance to receive the mercy Christ freely offered? Drawing from Scripture, the lives of Peter and Paul, and the incredible message of the Cross, we examine guilt, repentance, shame, despair, forgiveness, and the limitless mercy of God. This episode isn't really about Judas—it's about every one of us who has ever wondered if we've gone too far, failed too badly, or drifted too far from God's grace. If you've ever struggled with regret, carried the weight of your past, or questioned whether God could still love someone like you, this conversation is for you. Because the story of Christianity is not about perfect people finding God. It's about a perfect God refusing to give up on broken people.Find links for "The Clockwork Junkie Podcast" here:https://linktr.ee/clockworkjunkiepodcast 👈 As always feel free to email me here:[email protected] Soon,Mark
