Bible Question (short): what's this saying? |
Question (full): Can anyone clarify what this verse is saying? I've been over and over this one for months, but cannot get it. The only thing I get out of it is that there are 2 types of sins. One that will send you to hell and one that won't. The rest really confuses me. Sal |
