Jesus looked at him and loved him. "One thing you lack," he said. [size=20pt] "Go, sell everything you have and give to the poor, [/size] and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me Mat:10:21

Nope read the context of the verse, proverbs have meaning whether you are willing to acknowledge that or not!

elantraceey:



Then after he sells them and work again and become rich what happens?

That was a test of faith because Jesus knew he won't do it , If you are rich and you're not able to give out your possessions that's where the problem is not that its wrong or we're not supposed to be rich.

He said one thing you lack and what's that ? Giving.

Mar 10:21 Jesus looked at him and loved him. "One thing you lack," he said. "Go, sell everything you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me." ……Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, "How hard it is FOR THE RICH to enter the kingdom of God!" … Peter said to him, "We have left everything to follow you! "I tell you the truth," Jesus replied, "no one who has left home or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields for me and the gospel will fail to receive a hundred times as much in this present age (homes, brothers, sisters, mothers, children and fields--and with them, persecutions) and in the age TO COME, eternal life.

elantraceey:



So what are you saying ?

elantraceey:


Yes it does have meaning and you're interpreting it out of context .

They are living in denial!

Rilwayne001:


Christians are expected to leave everything for jesus and his gospel, they are not expected to be rich in this world but in the age to come, or else you want to give this verse another meaning.

Beloved, I wish above all things that thou
mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy
soul prospereth.

Charge them that are rich in this world,
that they be not highminded, nor trust in
uncertain riches, but in the living God,
who giveth us richly all things to enjoy;

He that spared not his own Son, but
delivered him up for us all, how shall he
not with him also freely give us all
things?

If you are poor do you think you'll be able to afford data to be online now? Do you even know the meaning of poverty?

malvisguy212:
[s] Kai, this muslims are too deluded and confused!!! The message of this preaching is the kingdom of heaven, the needle hole represents the gate of heaven and the man whom Jesus was talking to is a rich man, the man find it hard to abandoned his riches for the gospel of salvation that why Jesus say;

It is easier for camel to go through the hole of needle than for the man to enter the kingdom of heaven.
As a matter of fact the context was Not even talking about faith miracle or sign.

Even the Persian say something similar to this,it will be easier to put elephant in the hole of needle. The quran has completely shut this muslims brain. [/s]

totalhouse:

I heaaaaar. Calling is not what u will necessarily be informed long b4 time. It may come a bit sudden. So don't rule it out. However I understand ur point and ur fears.
Don't forget Eli was called but he was later substituted by Samuel at his young age when he knew not how to even hear from God.Calling is not written on anybody's forehead.God decides whom to call.

Rilwayne001:


Exactly the way they did on the other thread.
