Matthew 19:21-27
21Jesus said to him, “If you wish to be perfect, go sell your possessions and give the money to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.”
22But when the young man heard this he went away sorrowful, for he was very rich.
23Then Jesus said to his disciples, “I tell you the truth, it will be hard for a rich person to enter the kingdom of heaven!
24Again I say, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter into the kingdom of God.”
25The disciples were greatly astonished when they heard this and said, “Then who can be saved?”
26Jesus looked at them and replied, “This is impossible for mere humans, but for God all things are possible.”
27Then Peter said to him, “Look, we have left everything to follow you! What then will there be for us?”
