Meaning a saying or philosophy that involves God, Heaven, Hell, the apocalypse/end times, etc.
You can't pick something like "Blessed are the peacemakers" because "they will be called children of god".
You can't pick anything that's about the Kingdom of Heaven.
You can't pick anything that's an allegory for something like say the parable of the mustard seed, which is an allegory for faith and stuff - unless it is brilliant outside a super natural context.
To an atheist, is Jesus a useful philosopher, or everything he says predicated upon God and the supernatural?
I say Jesus doesn't have much wisdom to share, unless you believe in Heaven and Hell.
