Bible Note: Hello Azure, Come on now, you will have to do better than that to refute these verses:). First - the man asked how to inherit eternal life. It stands to reason that Jesus answered his question. However, if you don't think that he did, then telling him that he would have treasure in heaven seems to say the same thing, right? Do the unsaved have treasure in heaven? Can anyone have treasure in heaven and not have eternal life? Second, do you know the apostles didn't sell all they had? I don't see the Scriptures say that anywhere which means that it is speculation and that is not allowed here:). Come on now, you have been here a long time. Step outside the box of standard theology and tell me why this is not a requirement. The jailer asked Paul what he had to do to be saved and Paul answered "Believe" and we go with it. A man asks Jesus what he must do to be saved (am I correct in assuming that inheriting eternal life and being saved are the same?) and He answers and we don't go with it. Tell you what, let's put away the commandments for now and just go with sell all you have. Jesus said there was only one thing he lacked. What was that one thing? Was it selling all he had or was it following Jesus or was it something else? jamison |
