Matthew 26:14-16 Judas betrayed Jesus

¹⁴ Then one of the twelve, called Judas Iscariot, went unto the chief priests,
¹⁵ And said unto them, What will ye give me, and I will deliver him unto you? And they covenanted with him for thirty pieces of silver.
¹⁶ And from that time he sought opportunity to betray him.
-Matthew 26:14-16 King James Version (KJV)

70...  

3158.* ....To this it should be added that while, indeed, some are reformed more quickly, and even at the moment of death, yet these are such persons as have been prepared earlier in an unusual way, of which they themselves are unaware. It is another matter if it happens by way of the sheer mercy of God the Messiah, in which case they must undergo hellish torments, as I was told regarding Judas the betrayer,

for whom there is nonetheless said to be hope, because he was among the chosen, who were given by Jehovah the Father to God the Messiah, as God the Messiah Himself says [John 17: 6].

Moreover, outside of the cities, in the environs [the surrounding area or district,] and sometimes within the cities, are very many, such as, although wicked, are not cast down, and such as, although good, are not immediately raised up to heaven. These are such as have arrived from the world within the last 10 to 20 years, who minister to men, and through whom, as subjects, communication is effected with the hells and with the heavens. These are the ones who are in the world of spirits; for those who are in the hells can not be drawn out of them after having been fully vastated.

[ VASTATION 5071. All who come into the other life are vastated. Those who have been in good, in the world, are vastated as to evils and the falses thence arising... But those who have been in evil, are vastated as to truths and goods, if they have any... The latter are, thus, cast down into hell; the former are raised up to heaven. Vastations last, with some, a long time, according to the quantity and quality of the good or evil. They are wont to continue for several years... (Spiritual Experiences #5071)]

Sometimes, some [may be drawn out] who have not been fully vastated; for those who have been vastated are kept in hell, neither can they be drawn out thence, for as soon as ever they thrust forth their head from thence, they are tormented dreadfully... The evil are vastated as to all the hypocritical, or external, truths and goods they possessed in the eyes of the world, their evils and falses thus remaining. But the good are vastated as to evils and falses of act, which are separated from them, their goods and truths thus remaining; and so they are raised up to heaven. Thus all things follow on.
