Correct. There's one Sunday devoted to the readings about Jesus's statement that getting to heaven is like passing through the "eye of the needle", a very narrow gate to a city. The standard interpretation is that to pass through the eye of the needle, you need to remove all of your belongings. In other words, you can't take it with you.
It is fairly common for preachers to say that money is not the problem -- it's what you do with the money.
- 8fGTBjZxBcHq 5y agoThis stuff varies quite a bit by denomination and just tradition honestly. I mean you also have mainstream preachers telling you that if your faith is strong enough god will reward you with riches, which has been considered a heresy for at least a thousand years. So I don't know they should be but preachers may not universally be the experts on this unfortunately.
