Did Jesus come to tell people how to get to an afterlife or how to live on earth?

Yes to both. In Romans, the plan to salvation or how to get to the afterlife is explained in detail. In short, Jesus tells us that He is the only way to heaven and to the father.
In the four gospels, Jesus tells us how to live. He gives us parables (metaphors or stories) to explain his teachings. In the old Levitical law, we are given specific things not to do or to do (such as the 10 commandments). Things like don’t murder, don’t cheat, etc. But Jesus ups the ante and says if you’ve thought of those things, then you’ve sinned. Jesus focused more on our inward part of us than the outward part.
