It is better for you to enter into the Kingdom of God with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into the Gehenna of fire, Mark 10:7 For this cause a man will leave his father and mother, and will join to his wife, Mark 12:24 Jesus answered them, "Isn't this because you are mistaken, not knowing the Scriptures, nor the power of God?

Acts 26:32 And Agrippa said to Festus, This man might have been made free, if he had not put his cause before Caesar. Acts 28:18 who, when they had examined me, desired to set me free, because there was no cause of death in me.

May it never be! But sin, that it might be shown to be sin, by working death to me through that which is good; that through the commandment sin might become exceeding sinful. Romans 8:1 For this cause those who are in Christ Jesus will not be judged as sinners. Romans 13:3 For rulers are not a cause of fear to the good work but to the evil.
