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?
