Jesus Counsels the Rich Young Ruler
16 aNow behold, one came and said to Him, b“Good Teacher, what good thing shall I do that I may have eternal life?”
17 So He said to him,1 “Why do you call Me good? No one is agood but One, that is, God. But if you want to enter into life, bkeep the commandments.”
