4. He witnessed the potential power, influence, and wealth…even a fast-track to success!
C. Somehow, Judas heard the messages but never listened…
1. Judas missed the messages of “storing your treasures in heaven.”
Matthew 19:21-24 NLT
2. Judas missed the messages of “where your heart is your treasure will also be.”
3. Judas missed the messages that you “can’t have two masters, God and money!”
4. He missed the whole concept of the “love of money is the root of all evil.”
D. If you were friends with Judas, what takeaway would you gain from your friendship?
From Judas:
1. Hearing a message does not mean you are listening. There is a conscious choice to take a message into your heart.
2. We should always check our motives. Whenever they are in conflict with God’s goals, we need to re-align our goals.
3. Judas’ heart was revealed by his words.
4. Seeing is not believing.
5. Our weakness could be our downfall when it is not guarded.
6. Remorse for sin is evidenced by a change in behavior.
7. Hanging with all the right people, going to the right places, and even doing the right things does not assure us of an eternity with Jesus. Only living by faith for Jesus brings us into a right relationship with Jesus.
From Jesus:
8. Never, never, never give up on those you love!
9. God believes in us and see us beyond who we are.
10. Don’t harbor feelings against those who would seek to do evil to you, but love them unconditionally.
11. It is never too late to make a difference in those in your world.
12. Teaching truth does not mean it is learned.
13. It is important to release those you love to make decisions on their own.
14. There is a very hard realization that although you may invest significantly in others, they still may make disappointing decisions.
15. Ultimately, we have to trust God with all things that are in our future…He has the best plan yet!
