How to use judas in a sentence?

1. Georges Bernanos:

   Fact is Our Lord knew all about the power of money: He gave capitalism a tiny niche in His scheme of things, He gave it a chance, He even provided a first installment of funds. Can you beat that? It's so magnificent. God despises nothing. After all, if the deal had come off, Judas would probably have endowed sanatoriums, hospitals, public libraries or laboratories.

2. Martin Luther:

   Christ is the Master the Scriptures are only the servant. The true way to test all the Books is to see whether they work the will of Christ or not. No Book which does not preach Christ can be apostolic, though Peter or Paul were its author. And no Book which does preach Christ can fail to be apostolic though Judas, Ananias, Pilate or Herod were its author.

3. Leonard Hodgson:

   To St. Paul, stripes, stones, shipwrecks, and thorns in the flesh were religious experiences to Judas Iscariot, the daily companionship of Jesus of Nazareth was not.

4. Fabrice:

   Never judge people based on their company. Take Judas, for example; he had irreprochable friends!

5. Charles de LEUSSE:

   Judas did not make only one kiss. (Judas n'a pas fait qu'une seule bise)
