Maybe Christ should give up his wealth and follow me so me and Christ can smoke some highgrade weed together.


That is if Christ has any wealth or even existed

jesusjnr2020:
Yes he must if he just doesn't want to be saved to enter into the kingdom of God in heaven, but also that which is on Earth.

It doesn't necessarily mean a rich man literally forsaking all his riches, but to forsake it mentally.

To illustrate, Abraham didn't need to literally sacrifice Isaac to God, but he would have done it had God not stopped him to show that he'd already sacrificed him mentally, so doing it literally would just be a mere formality. Hence God rewarded him for obeying His voice despite the fact that he didn't literally sacrifice his son as God had instructed him to do.

That mentality is what all God requires from anyone who wants to enter into His kingdom on Earth, and i wouldn't be surprised if Jesus had stopped the rich young man from doing it literally as God did in the instance of Abraham, if he had also shown that mentality of the kingdom of God.

This is the mentality all of His apostles had, so for anyone to truly become one, he must have that.

Jesus said, it's almost impossible for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God on Earth because they hardly have that mentality which it requires.

God bless.

Christ already gave up all He had for your sake when he left His Glory in heaven to come die for you.

Hi guys, I am still curious about what Christ told the young rich man about selling all he has and giving to the poor in Matthew 19:16-30, Mark 10:17-31, and Luke 18:18-30?

I brought this up because some Churches always bring these bible passages up, while others say Christ is not poor so Christians are not supposed to be poor.

Goddamn mehn!

Who Christianity epp?


Period!

Ezekiel36vs28:
This is very wrong from you.What that scripture is saying is the will of God for a Christian. You give or sow all you have to God whether you possess very much or very little.There is no middle ground or anything like a mental giving Here but actual giving up of your property.That is the work of GRACE in a Christians life.God’s GRACE will first of all make you very poor before it will now lift you to realms you could never have attained even with your former riches. You can see GRACE at work in the early church by them selling Their possessions(lands and houses inclusive) they had and laying it at the Apostles feet to be shared to everyone who had need(Acts 2:45 and 4:32-37).That is why 2 cor 8:9 says”For you know the grace of our lord Jesus Christ,that,though he was rich,yet for your sakes he became poor,that you through his poverty might be rich”.So also you who has riches will become poor for others to be rich if you are a man under the GRACE of Jesus Christ.It is the law of Grace and the law has not changed.thanks

and this is Pride

WILLuKPquiet:


No one can lay claim to knowing it all when it comes to explaining the scriptures.
This is the way you see it, that is the way he sees it and someone else might understand it differently. Yet that doesn't make any of you less a child of God.

Stay blessed.

Ezekiel36vs28:
That is God’s declaration concerning you.Thanks

WILLuKPquiet:


I see the response of the other guy more of pride than his. Go and read his response. He calls himself the word of God. No one is except Christ.

WILLuKPquiet:


Guy you think too much of yourself. You are pride personified.
If you disagree with another Christian do it with love and humility.
Who confirmed it that your opinion on this issue is accurate?

You must be seeing yourself dining with the angels in your dreams.

Ezekiel36vs28:
Yes,and i am a Christ.God came down in form of a man as Jesus Christ to raise up men for himself called Christ or sons of God or messiahs or the word of God or Gods.There is no pride there but truth as declared by God concerning his children.Anyone who who has been baptized into Christ is a Christ.It is God’s doing which is marvelous in our sight.

Angelfrost:
Christianity is not as literal as many erroneously take it... There is a lot of subjectivity with regards to that event in scripture.

That was not the first nor only wealthy person Christ encountered through out his earthly ministry. There were others: The Centurion, Zaccheus, even Jarius. He never asked them all to do exactly what he demanded of the person above... The question should be, Why??!

The answer is quite simple... The rest were not deeply and overtly attached to their wealth. Christ could easily tell, can still easily tell till date.

Asking the man to part with his wealth (Note: Not to Christ, like some so called men of God today, but to the needy) was intended specifically to test where his heart truly lay: In fully following Christ or whether Christ would come second to his wealth.

God has to come first in a Christian's life... Professing to love Christ while serving him only when and where convenient is not an acceptable discipleship trait. To be truly connected to God, and be a disciple, while not discarding your God-given wealth, they must never take the place of God in our lives... The pursuit of earthly wealth should be secondary to Divine pursuits.
