It's interesting and enlightening. Google is the world , the world turns away from the light reflexively. It's so predictable. We are all going to die and the world will fade away . It all becomes clearer to many on their deathbed when there is less mind clutter,

Spot on.
Looking at the man, Jesus felt genuine love for him. “There is still one thing you haven’t done,” he told him. “Go and sell all your possessions and give the money to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.”
America turns away from this message every single day.
That was a personal message to that individual that claimed to follow the commandments (which nobody but Christ has ever done) Christ was illustrating to the man that he was breaking a commandment and that he needed a savior since the man went sadly away afraid to give up his safety and trust god . To the homosexual Christ would have said give up your sodomy and follow me!
Funny how all the messages from Christ to eschew material things are "personal messages" that can be safely ignored by his more materialistic followers. You are right that the only person who followed the Christian religion is Christ. It's tough to follow the religion. That's why no one actually does.
Christianity is not a religion, it is a gift. Other faiths say do this, do that. Christianity says "done". True gratitude for the gift naturally leads to a purer life.

In other words pay taxes and don't call a sodomy based relationship marriage.
Not according to Jesus.

I think you are incorrect with your statement. If you belong to a church that doesn't acknowledge Jesus' message for Christians to live their lives in a way that glorifies God by doing for others, showing kindness and mercy, and generously helping those in need, I can assure you there are many of them that do make it their focus.
