Matthew 19:16 Douay-Rheims

And behold one came and said to him: Good master, what good shall I do that I may have life everlasting?

Origen

c. A.D. 184–253 Patristic

Or perhaps these precepts are enough to introduce one, if I may say so, to the entrance of life; but neither these, nor any like them, are enough to conduct one to the more inward parts of life. But whoso transgresses one of these commandments, shall not even come to the entrance in unto life.
