<DIV>Ralph,</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Jesus did not have many opinions about how to gain eternal life. He has one truth. He is the way. Nothing He has ever said has contradicted this stated truth. Yes, you can achieve eternal life by never breaking a Hebrew law, but there is only one Man that has ever done this, and his name is Jesus. If you can point out to me one other person that is without sin, please do, I would like to meet Him.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Best,</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Donovan <BR><BR><B><I>Ralph Nielsen <nielsen@uidaho.edu></I></B> wrote:</DIV> <BLOCKQUOTE class=replbq style="PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #1010ff 2px solid">Don't get too cracked up, Donovan. Jesus had various opinions about <BR>how to gain eternal life. In order to get to heaven you have to keep <BR>the commandments of the Hebrew religion - wasn't Jesus a Jew? (Do you <BR>know how many there are?) And then, if you are rich, you must
sell <BR>all your possessions and give the money to the poor (Matthew <BR>19:16-24). You will not be judged by what you believe but by what you <BR>have done. "... all who are in their graves will hear his [Jesus'] <BR>voice and will come out - those who have done good, to the <BR>resurrection of life, and those who have done evil, to the <BR>resurrection of condemnation" (John 5:28-29). Read also Revelation <BR>20:11-12. "See, I am coming soon; my reward is with me, to repay <BR>according to everyone's work" (Revelation 22:12). So again I say, <BR>Donovan, don't get too cracked up.<BR><BR>Ralph<BR><BR>Donovan Arnold donovanjarnold2005 at yahoo.com<BR>Sun Oct 14 16:07:52 PDT 2007<BR><BR>Joe,<BR><BR>What cracks me up Joe, is that Christ said He is the only way, yet <BR>you claim you can believe He is wrong and still be a follower of His. <BR>It is contradictory to logic.<BR><BR>You are arguing the impossible position, which is self <BR>contradictory.

is wrong but you believe in <BR>what He says, at the same time. You are arguing blue can be any other <BR>color of the rainbow and still be blue.
