The point is this.
Christians say they want to "know" Jesus and the only way to get to know him is to understand his mind...what was he thinking when he said Mark 10:18.
Let me ask you a question.
Do you care (at all) that Jesus was quoting Psalms 16:2? Do you care to know why he was quoting Psalms 16:2? If you wanted to know the true Jesus and what he represents then you would say a resounding yes - But no, Eloycraft gives this thread lip service because they are not interested in the thinking of Christ, they only want to discuss their own wisdom and musings and certainly dont want the Spirit in Christ to lead them to Psalms 16.
If the title of the OP leads you to understand that all God's created beings give Him Glory, including Christ, then the answer is of course, no, we dont have any goodness at all without God's goodness in our lives. Jesus said he can do nothing without the Father. Romans 3:10 cmp Psalms 14:1-3 is also teaching you all that no one has righteousness of their own - Christ is our righteousness. 1 Corinthians 1:30 taken from Jeremiah 9:24.
Christians boast about being led by he Spirit but it's clear to all reading this that that is simply a lie because they want to be led by the wisdom of this world and all its philosophies.
I will leave you with this final thought.
Jesus in stating to the zealous young man, "dont call me good" and then emphatically stating "God alone is good"
In Mark 10:20 Did the young man learn his lesson from Jesus in relation to calling him good?
I'll step it out for you so it's not missed!
Mark 10:17 Now as Jesus was starting out on his way, someone ran up to him, •fell on his knees,
and said, “Good teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?
Mark 10:20 •The man said to him,
“Teacher, I have wholeheartedly obeyed all these laws since my youth
Did the young man learn that simple Sunday School lesson of Psalms 16:2?
Did he learn that only God possess inherent Goodness?
He did!
People like
@EloyCraft dont even get to this point because of their ignorance and unwillingness to allow the Word of God to lead them into truth.
Dont follow their example but look at the young man who at least showed a hint of promise that he might go away and sell all that he has in giving all Glory to God through Jesus Christ.
