Mark 23-27

Jesus looked around at his disciples and said, "How hard it will be for the wealthy to enter the kingdom of God."

They were amazed that he should say this, but Jesus insisted, "Children, how hard it is to enter the kingdom of God! It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God."

They were more astonished than ever, and said to one another, "Then who can be saved?"

Jesus looked them in the face and said, "For men it is impossible, but not for God; to God everything is possible."
