The Rich Young Man

And, behold, a young man came unto Jesus and said Good Master, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life?  And Jesus said unto him, Why do you call Me good? there is none good but One, that is, God: but if you would enter into life, keep the commandments. He said unto Jesus, Which? Jesus said you shall not murder, you shall not commit adultery, you shall not steal, you shall not bear false witness, Honour both your father and mother: and, you shall love your neighbour as yourself.

The young man said unto Jesus All these things I have kept from my youth up: what lack I yet? Jesus said unto him, If you would be perfect, go and sell that which you have, and give to the poor, and you shall have treasure in heaven: and come and follow Me. But when the young man heard that saying, he went away sorrowful: for he had great possessions. Matthew 19 vs 16-22.

Then said Jesus unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, That a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven. And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the Kingdom of God. When His disciples heard it, they were exceedingly amazed, saying, Who then can be saved? But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible. Then answered Peter and said unto Jesus, Behold, we have forsaken all, and followed You; what shall we have therefore? And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That you that have followed Me, in the regeneration when the Son of Man shall sit in the throne of His glory, you also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. And everyone that has forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for My name’s sake, shall receive a hundredfold and shall inherit everlasting life. But many that are first shall be last, and the last shall be first. Matthew 19 vs 23-30.
