A lawyer asked Jesus a simple question:
“Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?”
Christ said to him, “What is written in the law? What is your reading of it?”
The lawyer quoted from the Ten Commandments: “ ‘You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind,’ and ‘your neighbor as yourself.’”
Jesus replied to him, “You have answered rightly; do this and you will live” (Luke 10:25-28).
The rest is academic.
