He seems to be describing to different paths to me and then stating them both to be the best. That's what I'm getting from simple English.

Yes
Next question
Read Luke 6... The best path is discribed in detail in that chapter
Jesus is not the only way.... Just the best way

Are you saying there is no difference in the two ?

Do you really think people who lived their lives like Brother, but don't accept him as Savior will be sent to eternal damnation?
Is it possible with having a direct relationship with God, or choosing your own way to God, but being good?

My question is not based on what he did to fulfill scripture or his task. I am asking, can you try and live like him and enter heaven, without doing all the extra stuff?
No nothing we do can get us to heaven, it says in Ephesians 2:9 Not of works, lest any man should boast, because we have sinned our righteous deeds, are nothing but filthy rags in the eyes of God if we are relying on them to get us to heaven. Eternal life is a free gift to all who repent and believe on Jesus Christ. We are called to live like him but if we do not have a relationship with him then it's in vain.
