Was Judas Jesus’ Treasurer? If So, What Does that Reveal?

Yes, Judas was the appointed treasurer in our LORD’s earthly ministry. And so what does that tell us?

Jesus and the apostles did receive love offerings. Jesus taught His people, us, to “give” and so why would He turn away love offerings which He was going to use to give eternal treasure to those who gave – laying it up in Heaven for them, the ultimate eternal dividends? (Matthew 6:19-21) Why would Christ and His holy apostles want to rob His people from laying up eternal treasure? After all, that’s exactly what they taught us to do. Jesus would not have had a treasurer if there was no money to handle.

Have you ever heard that one? Let’s examine it against Holy Scripture, shall we?

From time to time we see folk who do ministry touting, virtue signaling that they “don’t take donations” as if allowing the body of Christ to obey Jesus by laying up treasure in Heaven is a bad thing (Matthew 6:19-21). SMH at this ridiculousness. THINK: If allowing people to give to a ministry of Christ is a sin or is wrong, that would make Jesus Christ a sinner – because the Son of God had a treasurer who handled the love offerings that were given to Christ’s ministry. Anyone ever heard of Judas? Hint: If Jesus had a treasurer, that meant there was money to handle (John 12:6; 13:29).

God’s Word tell us that Judas “had the bag.” The term “had the bag” in John 12:6 and 13:29 simply means he, Judas, handled the money.

The fact that Jesus and His holy apostles had a treasurer means they received offerings.

Seems that those self-righteous ministers who don’t believe God’s people should be giving to God’s work don’t truly believe they themselves are doing God’s work. Think about that. If they genuinely believed they were doing God’s work, if they were crucified with Christ and therefore separated unto the LORD and not making their work their identity, why would they be so uneasy about people funding GOD’s work? Perhaps they see their work as THEIRS – THEIR work and not God’s. Selah.

There is a big difference between those in ministry who are in it for the money (2 Peter 2:1-3) and those who simply and humbly receive the money given by God’s people to do HIS work. Ultimately, the work of God is God’s work, not man’s. The LORD simply uses the men He calls out and prepares as instruments in His work (1 Corinthians 1:29-2:5; 3:6-9; 9:1-14, etc.).

Isn’t it interesting that Judas was a thief, the betrayer of the Son of God, and as such He misdirected, misappropriated those funds? So, Judas took from our LORD’s Gospel work. Seems to me that those attempting to hinder God’s people from giving to His work as he commanded them to do, are stealing from them and from Christ and cheating them out of blessings God intends to give them.

“It is more blessed to give than to receive.” Acts 20:35

Clearly, to hinder someone from giving to Jesus’ work is to deprive them of the associated divine blessings.

Flash Point: God has no will, desire, directive, or command for His people that does not come with a divine blessing attached to it! (Psalms 68:19; 103:2; Acts 20:35; 2 Corinthians 9:6-11, etc.) How is God going to release that blessing to His people if there’s no ability to meet that condition? If there’s no way for them to fulfill it?

Some will even take Matthew 10:8 our of context. They will declare “Freely ye have received, freely give.” So, in this they are saying that we only give. We don’t receive but we only give. But if we haven’t received, if we don’t possess something, how can we give it out? Please tell us which comes first in this verse (Matthew 10:8 above) – receiving or giving? Receiving. One has to receive in order to “have to give”, right? Right (Ephesians 4:28).

“This he said, not that he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief, and had the bag, and bare (carried) what was put therein.” John 12:6

Also, remember that “Jesus sat over against the treasury, and beheld how the people cast money into the treasury”… So if having a place people could give was a sin, was wrong, WHY did Jesus not tell us so right here? After all, the unchanging Son of God is in the place where the people of God gather and He’s specifically sitting and watching how people gave. If allowing people to give to GOD’s work, not man’s, is wrong, is a sin, then Jesus Christ was participating in sin by not stopping it. Read Mark 12:41-44.

Where does Jesus sit in our midst?

What does Jesus watch for?

Jesus is watching how we are stewarding His resources. He watches what percentage we give to His work and ouT of which heart (Mark 12:41-44; 2 Corinthians 9:7).

“Honour the LORD with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase: So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine.” Proverbs 3:9-10

The proof that God is working in our lives, that we are truly following Jesus, is that we are becoming less and less vested in this fleeting, fallen world (James 4:4; 1 John 2:15-17). And that we, our good works and giving are more and more invested in eternity – in the eternal kingdom of Christ, laying up treasures in Heaven, sending them before us for us, relinquishing the things of this world and putting them to work for the eternal Gospel of Jesus Christ – for saints to be built up and the lost to hear the Word of God! (Matthew 6:19-21)

The LORD incentivizes His people to sow bountifully and yet it must be done out of the right heart. The LORD loves it when we give hilariously – worshipfully with exuberant thanksgiving and joy as He gives into our hands.

“But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully. 7 Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver. 8 And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work: 9 (As it is written, He hath dispersed abroad; he hath given to the poor: his righteousness remaineth for ever. 10 Now he that ministereth seed to the sower both minister bread for your food, and multiply your seed sown, and increase the fruits of your righteousness;) 11 Being enriched in every thing to all bountifulness, which causeth through us thanksgiving to God.” 2 Corinthians 9:6-11

How to Spot a Fake Bible [podcast]

Please don’t balk till you read these 3 verses. This is indefensible to the sane mind! “He that answereth a matter before he heareth it, it is folly and shame unto him.” (Proverbs 18:13) In 2016 the Berean Study Bible (BSB) was introduced. Sounds good, right? Not! There are 3 verses we use to acid test “bibles”: Matthew 17:21; Romans 8:1; and Colossians 1:14 As usual, this BSB was taken from the known corrupted manuscripts instead of the Textus Receptus from which the KJB comes from. In the BSB, typically, we find: Matthew 17:21 was removed, Romans 8:1 was chopped in […]

Apostasy

Sorcery, Pharmakeia

Originally written by Allegra Spaulding (edited)

This is the Devil’s COUNTERFEIT of the natural healing herbs that the Lord has provided for us.

“And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.” Genesis 1:29

We choose what tree we will eat from……

If we eat from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, then we are receiving demonic knowledge. This is the knowledge from the fallen angels. This is the source of Pharmakeia.

“This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish.” James 3:15

Babylon is the epicenter of this witchcraft.

“And the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee (Babylon); and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries (Pharmakeia), were all nations deceived.” Revelation 18:23

Babylon is introducing the Beast System of Medicine. The trial run was the Covid 19 agenda which has killed millions of people through blood clots, turbo cancers, and heart failure. It was SORCERY against the nations conducted through the Spirit of Pharmakeia, which includes the witchcraft spirits of Control and Intimidation. People were forced to take a vac-c-ine in order to keep their jobs to feed their families. With devastating consequences. The third leading cause of death in the United States is medical procedures and pharmeseuticals (pharmakeia).

The Lord is calling us out of the system of Pharmakeia. He wants us to repent and separate ourselves.

“And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.” Revelation 18:4

There is a judgment coming upon the spirit of Pharmakeia and we do not want to be entangled with it.

“But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.” Revelation 21:8

PHARMAKEUS translates to: a drug, i.e. spell-giving potion; a druggist (“pharmacist”) or poisoner, i.e. (by extension) a magician:—sorcerer.

We have better promises. We can feast on the Tree of Life for our medicine.

“And by the river upon the bank thereof, on this side and on that side, shall grow all trees for meat, whose leaf shall not fade, neither shall the fruit thereof be consumed: it shall bring forth new fruit according to his months, because their waters they issued out of the sanctuary: and the fruit thereof shall be for meat, and the leaf thereof for medicine.” Ezekiel 47:12

It’s time to get healthy and come out of the Babylonian Medical System. Shall we begin with prayer?

Lord Jesus, I repent for seeking the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil for knowledge about my health. I know that You have supplied for all of my needs through natural herbs and the leaves of the Tree of Life. You are the Tree of Life. In Jesus’ name.

May the ungodly soul-ties between myself and the spirit of Pharmakeia be broken now in Jesus’ name. May all the ungodly soul-ties between myself and the medical system, hospitals, doctors, and nurses be broken now in Jesus’ name.

May every curse spoken over this life You gave regarding sickness be broken and cancelled with every medical diagnosis, in Jesus’ name.

Thank You LORD Jesus that according to the Word of God, by Your stripes I am healed! And as I seek Your wisdom and Your knowledge that comes from Heaven.

Lord, please give me wisdom about food intake, about my lifestyle, and about these choices so that I can receive divine health. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

“And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb. 2 In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.” Revelation 22:1-2

“Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord’s table, and of the table of devils.” 1 Corinthians 10:21

“And he said unto him, Thus saith the Lord, Forasmuch as thou hast sent messengers to enquire of Baal-zebub the god of Ekron, is it not because there is no God in Israel to enquire of his word? therefore thou shalt not come down off that bed on which thou art gone up, but shalt surely die.” 2 Kings 1:16

PHARMAKEIA AND SORCERY

author unknown SATAN is targeting your blood stream. Make no mistake. – “The life of the flesh is in the BLOOD” (Leviticus 17:11). Pharmakeia is a form of the Greek root word from which we get our English words: Pharmacy, Pharmacist, and Pharmaceutical. In the Bible, pharmakeia carried with it the idea of sorcery, occultism, and black magic. It is in this sense that Paul used the term in Galatians 5:20 as the word “witchcraft.” Back then, apothecaries were your go-to for drugs and medicines. but did you know they also specialized in potion-making? And we know just how abominable potions […]

Abiding

Run that Ye May Obtain [podcast]

Don’t Walk. “Run.”

Saints we are finishing honest, holy, humble, repentant – crucified with Christ and confessing and never covering any sin (Proverbs 28:13).

1 Corinthians 9:16-27

16 For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel!

17 For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a dispensation of the gospel is committed unto me.

18 What is my reward then? Verily that, when I preach the gospel, I may make the gospel of Christ without charge, that I abuse not my power in the gospel.

19 For though I be free from all men, yet have I made myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more.

20 And unto the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews; to them that are under the law, as under the law, that I might gain them that are under the law;

21 To them that are without law, as without law, (being not without law to God, but under the law to Christ,) that I might gain them that are without law.

22 To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all things to all men, that I might by all means save some.

23 And this I do for the gospel’s sake, that I might be partaker thereof with you.

24 Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.

25 And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible.

26 I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air:

27 But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.”

Jesus Paid it All [podcast]

“by the sacrifice of himself“ “Now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.” Hebrews 9:26 “ALL have sinned” against our God and so our own good works do not atone for our sins (Isaiah 64:6; Romans 3:10, 23; Ephesians 2:8-9, etc.). ONLY Jesus could and did do that for us – make the atonement that brings us back to God. The LORD is “Holy, holy, holy” and therefore takes sin seriously (Isaiah 6:3; Revelation 4:8). The coming of Jesus to die on that cross reveals how loving […]

Christ Crucified [podcast]

The word “crucified” appears 37 times in God’s Word, all in the New Testament. To say that “crucified” is a very important divine truth, central to the New Covenant, would be a GROSS understatement. Those who preach a Christ that is not Crucified, preach a false Christ! – “But we preach Christ CRUCIFIED“ (1 Corinthians 1:23). The significance, the centrality of the crucifixion of Christ, is paramount to the Christian faith. Without the propitiatory death of Jesus Christ, there is no redemption as “God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself” (2 Corinthians 5:19). “To wit, that God was in […]

Colossians 1-2 is paramount to our walk with Heaven’s coming KING. Do I seek to know the […]

These good works are ordained of God through His Spirit and divine authority He chooses to exercize in those He’s […]
