Title: Woe to those who reject Jesus
Main Scripture: Matthew 11:20-24

20 Then Jesus began to denounce the cities in which most of his miracles had been performed, because they did not repent.
21 "Woe to you, Korazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! If the miracles that were performed in you had been performed in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes.
22 But I tell you, it will be more bearable for Tyre and Sidon on the day of judgment than for you.
23 And you, Capernaum, will you be lifted up to the skies? No, you will go down to the depths. If the miracles that were performed in you had been performed in Sodom, it would have remained to this day.
24 But I tell you that it will be more bearable for Sodom on the day of judgment than for you."

Jesus says in 11:24 "But I tell you that it will be more bearable for Sodom on the day of judgment than for you."

Compare 11:24 with 10:15 where Jesus says "I tell you the truth, it will be more bearable for Sodom and Gomorrah on the day of judgment than for that town."
