Among Jesus' twelve apostles was a man named Judas Iscariot. Judas is the apostle who betrayed Jesus into the hands of fierce enemies. Matthew 26:46-50 says, "Rise, let us be going. Behold, he is at hand that doth betray me. And while he yet spake, lo, Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the chief priests and elders of the people. Now he that betrayed him gave them a sign, saying, Whomsoever I shall kiss, that same is he. Hold him fast. And forthwith he came to Jesus, and said, Hail, master, and kissed him. And Jesus said unto him, Friend, wherefore art thou come? Then came they, and laid hands on Jesus, and took him".
Why would Jesus call the man who betrayed him, friend? Was not Judas an enemy? Now, we do know Christ would not have said, "friend", for no reason, because He taught us to be careful with words. In Matthew 5:37, He says, "Let your communication be yea, yea, nay, nay. For whatever is more than these cometh of evil."
So, He was not one to use extra, or, filler, words. Notice that Jesus does NOT say, "my friend". He simply said "friend". Let us not add the word "my" when it is not there. Indeed, Judas was a "friend"...a friend of the world, which made him an enemy of God. James 4:4 says, "Whosoever will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God." Yes. Judas was the enemy of God in Christ.
Judas' free will choice to be a friend of the world also worked in God's plan for Christ to die for the sins of man.
The case of Judas is only one of many that shows we can have one status in the world, and an opposite status in God's eyes. For example, the eleventh chapter of Romans tells us the Jews are enemies of the gospel for the sake of the salvation of the Gentiles. However, it also says Jews are God's beloved for the sake of the fathers. Abraham for example. They are enemies, yet, they are beloved, depending on from which side you look at them. The same applies to Judas being a friend of the world...and an enemy of God.
And consider the passage of 1 Peter 4:14, which says, "If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy are ye, for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you. On their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified".
Two opposites are occurring: "evil spoken of" and "glorified". When people criticize and speak badly about the follower of Christ who is living in accordance with the Bible, the Lord is glorified in terms of the spiritual. But He is "evil spoken of" in the eyes of this natural world.
So, again, Judas was both a friend of the world, which also made him an enemy of God (James 4:4).
