- prewett 3y agoOne can be rich (have a lot of money) without loving money, or to the point of the gate explanation, relying on money instead of God.
- anonymous_sorry 3y agoIf you had a lot of money but loved the god described in the New Testament more, then wouldn't you give it all away to the poor and needy as Jesus says?
- frank_nitti 3y agoMethinks they don’t want the rich man to have to give away his wealth, just to “love God more than the money”. So many in these comments (presumably wealthy or aspiring wealthy) seem desperate to assure themselves that wealth-hoarding is not inherently evil by His standards
