Kingdom of heaven » Rich people cannot enter
Jesus said to his disciples, "Truly I say to you, a rich man will enter into the Kingdom of Heaven with difficulty. Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye, than for a rich man to enter into the Kingdom of God."
Jesus looked around, and said to his disciples, "How difficult it is for those who have riches to enter into the Kingdom of God." The disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus answered again, "Children, how hard is it to enter into the Kingdom of God. It is easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye than for a rich man to enter into the Kingdom of God."
Jesus, seeing that he became very sad, said, "How hard it is for those who have riches to enter into the Kingdom of God. For it is easier for a camel to enter in through a needle's eye, than for a rich man to enter into the Kingdom of God."
He said to them, "Truly I tell you, there is no one who has left house, or wife, or brothers, or parents, or children, for the Kingdom of God's sake, who will not receive many times more in this time, and in the world to come, eternal life."
