The Seriousness of Sin Sin is not to be taken lightly. Jesus uses strong language to emphasize the need to avoid sin at all costs, even if it requires drastic personal sacrifice. Eternal Consequences The imagery of unending worms and unquenchable fire highlights the eternal nature of the consequences of sin. This should inspire a sense of urgency in sharing the gospel.
