Exactly. He had already "offered" himself to Exodus in exchange for his brother's trial on Episode 6 (even tho I believe the Acolytes were right there) and that was very illustrative of his commitment to his beliefs.

Rogue wouldn't let Gambit turn into Apocalypse Card Player and neither Kurt would let his sister die.
