John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Matthew 26:24

The Son of man goeth through sufferings to glory, as it is written of him — Yet this is no excuse for him that betrayeth him: miserable will that man be: it had been good for that man if he had not been born — May not the same be said of every man that finally perishes? But who can reconcile this, if it were true of Judas alone, with the doctrine of universal salvation?
