Was Judas ever a believer?

[TaliOrlando]

Was he a believer or was his only God Money??

Was he a believer that got tempted and then fell or what he bad from the start???

Believer in what??

Judas was never a saved individual, if that is what you are asking.

70 Jesus replied to them, "Didn't I choose you, the Twelve? (A) Yet one of you is the Devil!" (B) (John 6:70 - HCSB)

Amazingly, I had to search multiple versions in English to find one giving what I, at least, believe to be the correct rendering as "the Devil".

70απεκριθη αυτοις ο ιησους ουκ εγω υμας τους δωδεκα εξελεξαμην και εξ υμων εις διαβολος εστιν (Scrivener; idem. W/H and Stephanus)

Any other question would seem to be beside the point, as in 'believer in what'' although I think 'only a believer in money' seems a bit forced.
