The revolution lives on as profound today as ever. Those who choose Love are part of the Jesus Revolution whether they know it or not. The Kingdom of Heaven is open to all those who chose Love. But as with the Resurrection Faith it's Living Love that matters. That's what is "eternal". Not properly speaking religious word formulas like the rituals of the Pharisees.
You can understand this better if you understand what it means for Jesus to be "Good". And that God is Love.
