Judas could not defend himself against Satan entering into him.
Because he was too eager for a save-the-nation drive.

Judas was one of the 12 men closest to Jesus. Why would Judas betray Jesus?
Satan enters Judas. So he let Satan in and guided his actions. Judas had free will so he let him guide him to betray somebody he was so close to. But Jesus says your will be done so it seems everything was part of the plan. Am confused. Can anyone answer the question?

Judas was one of the 12 men closest to Jesus. Why would Judas betray Jesus?
He is chosen to fulfil the long prophecy of how Jesus would suffer under the power of men. Judas was also greedy and wanted money from the chief priests.

How responsible is Judas?
It says that Satan took possession of him sneaked in. So he was not free. Could you also say that it was God`s plan? But when you think that Jesus could have turned the cup away - he said no to Satan tempting him to disobey the Father ''or the 40 days in the desert''. So Judas had free will and he opened the gate to Satan. He let him in. Makes you think what am I doing to secure the castle of my Soul? are its wallls strengthened enough by prayer? is is solidly resting on His Commandments? is it regularly cleansed through prayer? how is our spiritual immune system? is His Blood running through our spiritual veins feeding every single bit? And when we see signs of a spiritual illness are we seeking the doctor - confession and guidance? Judas was probably the weakest of the 12 and not willing to seek such help.So Satan had the better on him.

Why in the absence of the multitude? hiding away like Satan - vile - not wanting to be seen? afraid of all those who supported Jesus?

Judas Agrees to Betray Jesus

Now the feast of unleavened bread, which is called the Passover, drew near. The chief priests and the scribes sought how they might put him to death, for they feared the people. Satan entered into Judas, who was surnamed Iscariot, who was numbered with the twelve. He went away, and talked with the chief priests and captains about how he might deliver him to them. They were glad, and agreed to give him money. He consented, and sought an opportunity to deliver him to them in the absence of the multitude.
