It’s better to enter into life crippled or lame than to go into eternal fire with both hands and both feet! ⁹ And if your eye causes you to trip up, pull it out and throw it away. Going into life with one eye is better than going into hell with two!

¹⁰ “Take care not to despise one of these little ones. I tell you this: in heaven, their angels are always gazing on the face of my father who lives there.
