Unfortunately for them, Jesus said this:

Mat 18:8 And if your hand or your foot causes you to offend, cut them off and throw them from you. It is better for you to enter into life lame or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into everlasting fire.
Mat 18:9 And if your eye offends you, pluck it out and throw it from you. It is better for you to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into the hell of fire.

Liberals generally shut down over these two verses.

Matthew 18:8, 9 is a Millennial passage . . .

Oh, that doesn’t, and needn’t, always happen.

As long as the “conservative” vision of Christ isn’t complete, there’s room to challenge it.

The happy thing is that this verse doesn’t live all by its lonesome, but alongside others that promise the perfecting action of the Lord. He’d rather you voluntarily choose than that He must force the issue, but He would rather force the issue than see you lost.
