How do we know God is in control even with Judas's betrayal?

Answered in 1 source

God's control is evident as Judas's betrayal was prophesied and part of God's eternal plan for redemption.

The assurance of God's control amidst even the darkest events, such as Judas's betrayal, is profoundly comforting for believers. The sermon emphasizes that Judas's actions were not a surprise to God but rather fulfilled Scripture. Jesus references prophecies in Psalms, indicating that these events were known and decreed well before they happened (John 13:19). This demonstrates that while Judas acted out of his wicked heart, his actions were ultimately accomplishing God's redemptive plan. Romans 8:28 assures us that all things work together for good to those who love God, including the betrayal by Judas, which paved the way for Christ's sacrifice for our sins.
