For it is easier to put a camel through the eye of a needle than to send a rich man to the kingdom of God.
Encourage charity among the wealthy, for blessed are the poor.
Suggested 'to do' list:
Bill Gates
Pat Robertson
Oprah
Bush Family
Saudi Arabia
etc...

Wrong!!,those who love money and chose to live by is power will not ascend into heaven.Try reading your bible a little more before you feel the need to preach without the fire

Wronly worded quote. It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kindom of heaven.
It depends on how and why the person got rich . If it was for the love of money and they keep it all to themselves then they are going to be cooked over a pile of their money until they get the idea that the love of money is the root of all evil and they should have shared some of it with those less luckey.

I am sure Bill Gates is wealthy enough to purchase a really big Waring blender...or some other device suitable for liquifying a camel.

OPRAH IS VERY GENEROUS, AND KIND, AND HAS HELPED MORE PEOPLE OF ALL WALKS OF LIFE, AND SUPPORTS THINGS THAT GIVE HOPE TO THE HOPELESS.
I DO NOT KNOW ABOUT THE OTHERS ON THE LIST.
DO YOU KNOW ABOUT THE EYE OF THE NEEDLE?
IT IS QUITE INTERESTING,
AND I SUGGEST YOU LOOK IT UP ,, THAT STATEMENT IS NOT ABOUT A SEWING NEEDLE, IT IS AN ACTUAL PLACE THAT HAS A TIGHT SQUEEZE

Do you know what the "Eye of the Needle" is?
And it is NOT a little metal pin used in sewing.

You don't go to heaven if you're rich? Lol. What does being rich have to do with how you live your life and your actions?
That has to be the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Screw God. Actually, no, the bible is full of dumb things.
