Things Jesus Never Said: Tolerate One Another as I have tolerated you.
Jesus is basically the definition of intolerance. Intolerance toward sin and evil. Jesus does say, "Love one another, just like I have loved you..." (John 13:34 WEB)
However, Jesus also says, "Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter into the Kingdom of Heaven; but he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven...Then I will tell them, 'I never knew you. Depart from me, you who work iniquity.'" (Matthew 7:21-23 WEB)
For those who commit sin and do what is evil in God's eyes, Jesus will refuse entrance into heaven.

(Revelation 3:3-5 WEB)
