A) As we enter into Matthew 18:7, We read that Jesus makes it clear about causing other people to stumble. No, there is in this specific space, any reason to believe that this is geared towards children. This is geared towards those who believe. Therefore, it’s application is towards all of those who believe, and try to put their conclusions on others, that may have ANY variance with the specific commands of Christ. If you have a flavor, GREAT. If you drop that ion some one eels, NOT GREAT, moon landing or not.
B) Temptation to do wrong is inevitable. Yes, that sounds like a movie line from The Matrix, but it is one they stole from Jesus. Temptations are real. They happen. To deny this is to deny the very words of Jesus. That is why He stated, in the sermon on the mount, to ask the father daily, to deliver us from temptation. Why is temptation inevitable, Because of sin. The Greek word skandalon means a snare, stumbling-block, cause for error.
C) Here is a key. Temptations come through Satan. He is called “The Tempter.” But they also come through people. They are, often times, the vessel of temptation. It can be by sight or by word, but people can be used to bring others to the moment of evil decisions. That is not good. That is why we need to be highly aware of our own influences.
D) If your hand of foot. That means the close to element of your external body parts, and then Jesus adds the “eye” into this mix. If they cause us to sin, then we need to cut it off. Why is this language so drastic? Because these things will cause us to fall. Jesus makes it clear that we need to not have sympathy for these things, but to cut them off. Chop, chop, anything to wounds our connections and right walking with God.
E) The comparison is made to getting into heaven lame or going to hell In the truth, it is impossible to miss this decision: either get in wounded and driving our flesh or to go to hell, will enjoying temporary pleasures and sin. Turn or burn. Heaven of Hell.
