No, because on the cross Jesus suffered the weight of all men's sins. Judas is only paying for his own.
-
No, I don't think Judas suffered for anyones' sins. The atonement of Jesus Christ is something that we can only begin to understand, He had to be a God (the son of God) to suffer and give his life for other people's sins.
-
Jesus knew Judas was going to betray him. I always assumed that he forgave Judas, thus, no eternal damnnation.
-
do we know that Judas went to Hell? What was His sin? He turned a known (what was thought to be) criminal, into the authorities..and thats a sin? If Jusus came back and preached as in days of Old ..He would end up arrested!.. Does that mean the officer would go to hell for it.. (vagrancy, trasspassing, treason, many reasons) WHY would Judas go to hell.. He Realized what he did and punished himself..why would God punish Him again? No Judas suffered for his own guilt in his mind.

Judas betrayed Jesus to the authorities knowing full well that He was the Messiah. Why he did this is anyone's guess. However, if he did go to hell for this betrayal, then he is only paying for his own sins. Jesus paid for all of our sins. This was something that no mere mortal could do. It required someone who had the attributes of divinity in that He had the ability to hold onto His mortal existence when the suffering would have been too much for one of us. So, Jesus suffered much more than any of us could have possibly endured, let alone imagine. So, no, Judas has not suffered more for humanities sins than the Savior did.

The course that Judas chose was a deliberate one, involving malice, greed, pride, hypocrisy, and scheming. Afterwards, he felt remorse under the burden of guilt, as a willful murderer might at the result of his crime. Yet Judas had of his own volition made a bargain with those who Jesus said made proselytes that were subjects of Gehenna twice as much as themselves, who were also liable to “the judgment of Gehenna.” (Matthew 23:15, 33) On the final night of his earthly life, Jesus himself said, actually about Judas: “It would have been finer for that man if he had not been born.” Later Christ called him “the son of destruction.” See Mark 14:21; John 17:12; Heb 10:26-29. Judas died and ceased living. He is not sitting in some fictional “hell” being tortured for his actions.
-
I thought that the book of the Bible that was recently found in Egypt confirmed that Judas was asked by Jesus to betray him.
-
Yes, for the second death, eternal separation from God is the most severe punishment. Jesus only experienced this in his human form on the cross when he said, "why has thou forsaken me". Jesus, lives as one with his father happily.

God eventually saves all from sin and shares His complete happy experience of eternity with everyone... God reconciles all to Himself through Jesus Christ, Who makes peace through His shed blood and crucifixion (Col 1:20). Jesus is the Lamb of God Who takes away all the sins of all the world (Jn 1:29). The creation itself, also, shall be freed from the slavery of corruption into the glorious freedom of the children of God (Rom 8:21). Hell's punishment is not forever but until the end of the eons. People don't sin enough during their mortal lives for God to choose endless punishment besides it would spoil the future of eternity to have a section continually reserved for endless torture... People are made by God to rebel against His ideal will for them and then offered a choice - forgiveness of their rebellion, or, punishment for their sins until they have paid the last penny... After punishment, those who went through torture in hell come to realise they need faith on God to succeed in life and they are converted into God's kingdom so that they cease from sinning and are rewarded for their compliance... There are two bible translations which uphold the doctrine of Universal Reconciliation with God, and the union of all beings into experience of God as the all in each of us.
