Kingdom of heaven » Rich people cannot enter
Then Jesus said then unto his disciples: "Verily I say unto you, it is hard for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of heaven. And moreover I say unto you: it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God."
And Jesus looked round about, and said unto his disciples, "What a hard thing it is for them that have riches enter into the kingdom of God." And his disciples were astonished at his words. But Jesus answered again, and said unto them, "Children: how hard is it for them, that trust in their riches, to enter into the kingdom of God? It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of an needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God."
When Jesus saw him mourn, he said, "With what difficulty shall they that have riches, enter into the kingdom of God: Easier it is for a camel to go through a needle's eye, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God."
And he said unto them, "Verily I say unto you, there is no man that leaveth house: other father and mother, other brethren, or wife, or children: for the kingdom of God's sake, which same shall not receive much more in this world, and in the world to come: life everlasting."
