It's weird that state of mind includes burning hellfire

Mark 9:43

If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off; it is better for you to enter life maimed than to have two hands and to go to hell, to the unquenchable fire

Metaphor, allegory, analogy. Matthew 13:10 otherwise you could end up in prison, dead, or exiled. Oh look, we've come full circle.

Who gets to determine which ones are allegory and which are literal?

Huh, weird translation. Is this Jesus speaking in these verses? Wish it had the red highlighting or whatever.

Also, this just makes it less clear lol. Like... it's kind of total nonsense
