The difference I see is that Judas had remorse but no hope and thus hung himself.
Peter was remoresfull (The gospels tell us he wept bitterly) but repented and was restored. Even when all hope seemed lost Peter still clung on to hope. This is the way of faith.
We all fail God but our eternal disposition and our life here on earth is based upon our trust in his unfailing love and the atoning work of Christ. This is Christian life.
Muhammad was born 570 AD at Mecca
Ironically the Gnostics do NOT "know".
An empty cross--an empty tomb--and a risen Lord--just as He said.
Jesus Christ: the only Hope in the world and in the world to come...
No, Mahammed was in the late 600's
And many will continue to live in unbelief which leads to damnation.
Do Whatever The Heck You Want.......Thats the religion that all liberals want....Thats why books and ideas like the davinci code,the gnostic gospels and such are big in a lot of peoples eyes...They really want the easy way out..Jesusu said,to take up your Cross and follow me...Not a big winner in most peoples eyes!!!!!!
