If you care to dispute anything that was said above lets here your arguments. Answer the questions and stop dodging. It's already established that you have a problem with comprehending.

Your first post has over 2600 words and your second one has over 3400 words. So where do you want to start? Did you even read them or you just posted them after someone gave them to you?

Here is a better place to start. In the passage I quoted many times, Jesus said "Why call me good? The only one who is good is God" Simple English answer. Did Jesus object to the man calling him good and reminded the man that only God is good? I don't care about any other passage because if you point to another passage that contradicts this statement, then you are admitting that Jesus contradicted himself.

When you are done answering this one in your own words, we can discuss another one but if you expect me to read your post which I have great doubt that you even read, you are kidding yourself.

The passage/scripture you are referring too is where Jesus is using a strident question to push the man to think through the implications of his own words, to understand the concept of Jesus goodness and, most especially, the man's lack of goodness. Just like I challenge you daily to understand what you are reading due to your lack of understand what you read.

He is challenging the religious leader to wake up and understand the truth that stands right in front of him. If he is calling Jesus "good", then he must come to understand that Jesus is God and not play religious games, but come to truly believe. Jesus isn't denying that he is God; I clearly made that distinction in previous post, Jesus is affirming that he is God. Eternal questions are not simply religious speculation, but the core questions of the human soul. Only God can answer those questions. So if he is going to ask Jesus this question, he needs to pay attention and place his faith in Jesus' answer.

You tell me where is the contradiction? As usual you love to pose questions while ignoring the ones that were addressed for you to answer. You took the time to count the numbers of words in my previous post did you took that much time reading to edify yourself? Why don't you start tally the number of questions you failed to come up with an answer for? Now who's kidding who?

Here are a few thoughts for you
"Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding"

"Those who know, do. Those that understand, teach." 

"Nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood. Now is the time to understand more, so that we may fear less."
