Matthew 19:17
Jesus never wasted people’s time. He always got to the heart of the matter. He never tried to paint it prettier than it is. He knew this man was self-righteous. So, he met him there. He established once and for all the Source of all good. And he called him to the highest standard and left the judging of the case up to the individual. He knew that the man knew that he could not be good on his own. He knows us all.
