TOUCHING A TRAITOR

(Message by Tanny Keng)

0. Introduction

a) What kind of people did Jesus associate with? Whom did he consider important enough to touch?Here we see many of the people Jesus came to know. Some reached out to him; he reached out to them all. Regardless of how great or unknown, rich or poor, young or old, sinner or saint - Jesus cares equally for all. No person is beyond the loving touch of Jesus.

1. Jesus talked with ...

i) A traitor.

a) Text reference: John 13:1-3, 26-27

i) Now before the Feast of the Passover, when Jesus knew that His hour had come that He should depart from this world to the Father, having loved His own who were in the world, He loved them to the end. 2 And supper being ended, the devil having already put it into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, to betray Him, 3 Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into His hands, and that He had come from God and was going to God. (John 13:1-3 NKJV)

ii) 26 Jesus answered, “It is he to whom I shall give a piece of bread when I have dipped it.” And having dipped the bread, He gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon. 27 Now after the piece of bread, Satan entered him. Then Jesus said to him, “What you do, do quickly.” (John 13:26-27 NKJV)


The End ...
