Jesus tells him that he lacks something that is nowhere commanded in the law. Salvation is therefore outside the law, as it is written, if righteousness came by the Law, then wherefore cometh Christ?

Jesus tells him, you know the commandments. he replies, these I have kept. he indicates thereby, he is not asking how to be empowered to keep the law. he is asking why keeping the Law does not result in eternal life (as he understands keeping of the Law)

he claims to have kept the Torah, but he knows he does not have eternal life by keeping it - - because he asks Jesus how he can earn it through works, but claims to have perfectly performed the works of the Torah if he had kept, "love your neighbor as yourself" would he be rich, or would he be...

the rich young ruler said "rabbi" - he is none other than a Jew he is a "ruler" - under Roman conquest as a Jew he can only be a high ranking member of the synagogue he is rich, and expects there is something "he" can "do" to receive eternal life - he can only be a pharisee, because the...

no one is good but God alone be ye not deluded ;)

does the word not say, put down your gift and go be reconciled?

therefore shouldn't you be asking me to forgive you for lying to me, instead of pretending it never happened? hence works cannot save you

finish the quote - - even the demons believe God is One. if you believe your works save you, you certainly don't believe that Christ finished His work, or that His work was effective. if you believe you are good, you make Christ a liar.

were we "hired" or were we bought and adopted?

liar ;) now how can you be saved? certainly not by your works, for, lairs shall not enter.

why does Jesus say only God alone is good? are you good? since you are not, what are you? seeing that you are evil, how can your works save you? who then can be saved? why did He say, with man it is impossible?

this is the work of God, that you believe on Him Who He sent

if you believe that personally attacking me and teaching salvation through works is in keeping with Matthew 28:19, i can't believe anything other than your presence here is a chance for you to learn repentance.

your opinion is that we should not emulate Jesus?

did Jesus die so that we could have a 154th chance for us to not need Him?

brand new? ok, understood, you are an ignorant child. no problem. you were drawn to where you **might** learn. you do well to recognize the preliminary goodness of childlike obedience. but obedience to what/Who? why did Jesus die if you did not need Him to?

The Truth is that whoever believes in Christ should pursue a righteous life - - but it is their belief that saves them, that is, The One in Whom they believe, not the righteousness of their walk. this is self evident to anyone and everyone who has ever truthfully wielded The Sword. The Wind...

((volunteers)) i am posting because i want my brothers and sisters to see and know The Truth. i love them.

then why are you even posting? weren't you telling us that how we live earns or prohibits salvation? so you are saying that salvation is meaningless to you, has no effect on your actions? hmm maybe you are in fact the greasy one, oh accuser... :LOL: :LOL:
