When Judas Iscariot was asked to join Jesus’ ministry, he was already engaged in money-making. He is thought to have hailed from a family with ties to terrorism, theft, and a fanatical Jewish sect that was obsessed with accumulating fortune at any cost.
Judas humbly made a bid for a more lucrative role in Jesus’ ministry: finance. Judas was given money for the ministry and was stealing from it, according to John 12:6. He had no one to answer to, not even his master, Jesus Christ. Jesus’ ministry was increasingly less concerned with accumulating wealth because it was more concerned with saving souls, changing the law, and laying the groundwork for the gospel to triumph.
