Warning About Hell

Matt. 18:6–9

42k“But whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me 9to stumble, it would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were thrown into the sea. 43lIf your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life 1maimed, rather than having two hands, to go to 2hell, into the fire that shall never be quenched—443where

m‘Their worm does not die

And the fire is not quenched.’

45And if your foot causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life lame, rather than having two feet, to be cast into 4hell, 5into the fire that shall never be quenched—46where

n‘Their worm does not die

And the fire is not quenched.’

47And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out. It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye, rather than having two eyes, to be cast into 6hell fire—48where

o‘Their worm does not die

And the pfire is not quenched.’

Tasteless Salt is Worthless

49“For everyone will be qseasoned with fire, rand 7every sacrifice will be seasoned with salt. 50sSalt is good, but if the salt loses its flavor, how will you season it? tHave salt in yourselves, and uhave peace with one another.”
