Mark 14:43-65, March 31

“You will know which one to arrest when I greet him with a kiss… ‘Rabbi!’ he (Judas) exclaimed, and gave him the kiss.”

The crucifixion of Christ is triggered by the betrayal of one of his closest followers Judas. Allowing sin to enter his heart through greed led Judas to sacrifice his relationship with Jesus for worldly pleasures that ultimately didn’t live up to the joy that was previously provided by a relationship with the Lord. We can learn from this to be active in guarding ourselves against Satan and being genuine with our Lord, for true discipleship demands integrity.
