So I was reading a post about hell and eternal damnation and now I am confused. According to Mark 9:43-48, people should cut off body parts that sin because it is better to go to heaven as a cripple then to go to hell whole.
"If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off; it is better for you to enter life maimed than with two hands to go to hell, to the unquenchable fire. And if your foot causes you to sin, cut it off; it is better for you to enter life lame than with two feet to be thrown into hell. And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out; it is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye than with two eyes to be thrown into hell, where their worm does not die, and the fire is not quenched." (Mark 9:43-48; see also Matt. 5:29-30; 18:8-9)
Will people who suffer bodily harm on earth and die in that condition continue to have that problem in the Kingdom of God? Because what about the people who were burned alive or blown apart by bombs? What part of their body will be taken up to heaven?
I am by no means an expert on the Bible so if anyone has any passages that counter this statement or offer hope of a new body, that would be greatly appreciated.
Also do afflictions of the mind such as autism or schizophrenia be healed with this imperishable body?
