For Spy Wednesday is don't be Judas.
When it was evening,
he reclined at
table with the Twelve.
And while they
were eating, he said,
“Amen, I say to
you, one of you will betray me.”
Deeply
distressed at this,
they began to
say to him one after another,
“Surely it is
not I, Lord?”
He said in
reply,
“He who has
dipped his hand into the dish with me
is the one who
will betray me.
The Son of Man
indeed goes, as it is written of him,
but woe to that
man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed.
It would be
better for that man if he had never been born.”
Then Judas, his
betrayer, said in reply,
“Surely it is
not I, Rabbi?”
He answered, “You have said so.”
Matthew 26.20-25
There are many ways to turn Jesus over to the crowds. The most obvious being turning Jesus over to the crowds. Let's not do that. No matter how loud the crowds scream. Don't betray Jesus to the crowds, even if we think that kiss we give on Sundays will make it all better.
