@hetgow I don't think I did. The YR asked Jesus what must he do to gain eternal life, and Jesus confirmed that he did what was necessary, and then Jesus says, if you want to be perfect. You need to explain what did Jesus meant, the guy already had what he need to get eternal life.

@hetgow It doesn't say that it was a literal man. Why would selling his possesions make him perfect. What did Jesus meant by perfect, the guy only wanted eternal life, isn't eternal life enough.

Steve, was Jesus speaking to a literal rich man? Did Jesus really asked him to sell his literal possesions and go to literally follow Jesus. I think you need to explain these problem.

I think you are avoiding the most important point in what Jesus said, and I see how other christians avoid the main point. Tell me, what does being poor have to do with being perfect. Why did he have to sell everything to be perfect. The YR asked him about eternal life, and Jesus answered him, and he did all those things already. What is it with the being perfect and selling your pocessions. That is what you are avoiding and jumping into tiding and other things, please answer the question.

@cmpresents You missed the point. The man loved riches more than God so Jesus confronted him of his sin (idolatry). The man did not want to turn over his greed or his corrupt heart. If you dont want to get rid of your sin (breaking God's law) then you can't get forgiveness.
Pretty simple but I too had the same question many years ago.
