let's be on topic guys =)
for the person who raised the thought about rich men entering heaven, jesus did not say that no rich man could enter heaven. he did not talk about a camel going through a completely closed, sealed, door. he talked about a camel going through an eye of a needle - a very very small door.
paul urges timothy (1 tim 6:17):
"Command those who are rich in this present world not to be arrogant nor to put their hope in wealth, which is so uncertain, but to put their hope in God, who richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment."
