Mark 9:45-50

47 And if your eye distracts you from God, pull it out and throw it away.
48 You're better off one-eyed and alive than exercising your twenty-twenty vision from inside the fire of hell.
49 "Everyone's going through a refining fire sooner or later,
50 but you'll be well-preserved, protected from the eternal flames. Be preservatives yourselves. Preserve the peace."
