Then entered Satan into Judas surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve. Luke 22:3
What sad words. Judas was associated closely with the Lord Jesus and seemed like an intimate disciple. He had listened to the Lord and seen His works. But he was not a believer. Sometimes we assume that those that we associate with are one with us in salvation. We need to be faithful preaching the Gospel and then leave the planted seed to bring conviction of sin by the Holy Spirit. We may be surprised by hearing of a confession of faith in Christ by
someone who we thought was already saved. —K. J. W.
Tell me the story softly, with earnest tones and grave;
Remember I’m the sinner, whom Jesus came to save;
Tell me the story always, if you would really be,
In any time of trouble, a comforter to me. —Katherine Hankey
