Simple English

It will be very bad for those who reject these things and die. They die in their sins. They cannot be saved in God’s kingdom. I say this because Christ said it. I do not lie.

Paraphrase

How terrible for those who reject these things and die in that condition. They die in their sins and can’t be saved in God’s kingdom. I’m saying this according to Christ’s own words, and I’m not lying.
