Do You Want to be Saved? The Untold Meaning of the Rich Young Ruler

🚨Special Extended Episode

In this episode, we uncover the true meaning behind the story of the Rich Young Ruler—a scripture that is often completely misunderstood. What does it mean to sell everything, give to the poor, and why is it so hard for the rich to enter the kingdom of God? What about the eye of a needle and why is it impossible for man? This is a difficult scripture to understand, and most miss the amazing message God is trying to tell all of us.

Key Takeaways:
  • What did Jesus mean by “sell all”?
  • Can rich people go to Heaven?
  • Does a lack of worldly possessions make you more spiritual?
  • The meaning of true salvation, and how can you experience it.
  • Will doing good deeds and being a good person get you into heaven?

Excerpts:

“Thankfully, most churches you go to don't require you to sell all your possessions before joining, membership would probably be extremely low if they did, so they know better.“

”When the pastor reads it in church, we all look at that one rich family there and think, “Sucks to be you.””

”Still, for most of us, this is a hard scripture to understand, one we probably avoid, one that most likely didn't make the refrigerator.”

”Oh, I can make it. Don't worry. I'm going to cram all this crap through the eye of that needle. Just you watch.”

Scripture Reference:
  • Matthew 19:16-22 NIV - The Rich and the Kingdom of God - Bible Gateway
