Judas Iscariot: Revisited and Restored

Judas Iscariot: Revisited and Restored

This book is not an apologetic for the sins of Judas. But the author of JUDAS ISCARIOT REVISITED AND RESTORED is convinced that there is more to the Judas story than has been told. Rogers is further convinced that until we finally understand the unlikely relationship between the "sinner" Judas and the "Savior" Jesus, we will never fully appreciate God's response to our own faults and failures. Many are convinced that God's grace i.e. "unmerited favor" must somehow first be merited (an oxymoron). With Judas, Rogers demonstrates that God's forgiveness is unearned and unlimited. "This book is riveting from the first page!  Rogers challenges us to look directly into the face of Judas until slowly an awful realization will dawn on our collective conscience: "My God, Judas is us!"
