He clearly wanted to show by example what living in unconditional love and understanding of Oneness of all looked like in human form. He was setting an example, saying, "look, here's what's possible!"
I see his manner of leaving incarnation as part of that example. He seemed to be saying: "Death isn't that important, even pain. There is something beyond that matters far, far more than this. It's worth this price."
"Those who love their life in this world will lose it. Those who care nothing for their life in this world will keep it for eternity."
"Those who love their life in this world will lose it. Those who care nothing for their life in this world will keep it for eternity."
Sucks to be me then! Seems the better off people are in this life, the more they are rewarded. The more things are hard for other people, the more they are punished in the end. What a lovely "savior" It sounds like the rich and powerful "lose" this life and go on to better things. The ones suffering get to keep suffering "forever"
I thought all he says is "believe" in him.. Now that is not good enough? Whatever happened to repeating 3rd? That statement quoted above seems to contradict that.
Am I interpreting that quote wrong?
Those who care nothing for their life (pain/suffering) in this world will keep "it" (pain and suffering) for eternity?
