Jesus teaches--Only those living now to do his Fathers will, get to enter his kingdom.(Matt 7:21-23) as for the rest= practicers of sin( worker of iniquity or lawlessness) These will hear these words from Jesus at judgement--Get away from me you who work iniquity, i must confess, i never even knew you. Jaws will be dropping to the floor, because many who work iniquity were assurred( by these teachers-1Corinthians 11:12-15) you are saved and didnt bother listening to Jesus. Who taught---Man does not live by bread alone, but by EVERY utterance from God. Few on earth do this. Jesus teaches-FEW will find the road that leads off into life( be saved)Catholics believe Jesus was fully human and also the Word, one with God from the beginning. Being fully human and yet One with God, he relates to God in these two ways.
Others have a different perspective, and I don't see that it matters much. The person who best understands God is about a millimeter closer to Him than the rest. The Kingdom of God has room for all who love God and we trust Him to draw us ever closer to Him.
Every utterance entails-OT-NT over and over-year after year one will still glean new utterances they might have missed or forgotten. It does not stop. The real teachers that Jesus appointed on earth make 100% sure this is done. All can look and see if this is the path their teachers are showing them.
