Just then a man came up to Jesus and asked, “Teacher, what
good thing must I do to get eternal life?” “Why do you ask me
about what is good?” Jesus replied. “There is only One who is
good. If you want to enter life, keep the commandments.”
“Which ones?” he inquired. Jesus replied, “‘You shall not
murder, you shall not commit adultery, you shall not steal, you
shall not give false testimony, honor your father and
mother, and ‘love your neighbor as yourself.’ “All these I have
kept,” the young man said. “What do I still lack?” Jesus
answered, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions
and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven.
Then come, follow me.” When the young man heard this, he
went away sad, because he had great wealth.
