Jesus pointed to the future fact and what was about to occur. Jesus was not preaching DBR as how people appropriate salvation. Nor the Dbr
the message the disciples were going around preaching. This is proved by Luke in 18 . No one was saved by Romans 10.9 nor was the good news 1 cor 15 until Rom 15 1-4 actually happened. If they had been preaching the Dbr before the dbr it would not have happened.
1 cor 2
7But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory:
8Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.
What point do you think you made?

Jesus said "unless you are born again,you can not enter the kingdom"

Try real hard to process it.

Are you actually unaware of Jesus mission?

It Was NOT to do anything but die for our sins.

....no matter what those misguided paulines tell you.

Do your own research.

My point was clear. The word "as" makes a comparison but is not the exact thing.
You are doing well.

Soon,very soon,the bible will magically change to YOUR WAY.

I suggest though ,you stand firm in ignoring some verses.

Verses are hazardous to omission prisms.

Please post Scripture where Jesus and His disciples preached the d,b,r for sins before the cross. Thanks.
You should know his mission was to die for sins.

But you do not know that.

Thst is why you have never seen the verses where Jesus himself preached ONE WAY TO HEAVEN.
Ahem....that is dbr.

But it gets worse for you because Jesus Specifically POINTED TO IT.

So, it is that a no on the verses that clearly state Jesus and His disciples preaching the d,b,r for sins before the cross? Please share the verses. Thanks.

I just want to clarify... are you saying that Jesus' ONLY mission was to die for our sins, and that there was no other aspect to it?
