To get a better understanding where works (the law) goes into (faith) following christ ,you should read the whole context of the rich young man
>27Then answered Peter and said unto him, Behold, we have forsaken all, and followed thee; what shall we have therefore? 28And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. 29And every one that hath forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name's sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life. 30But many that are first shall be last; and the last shall be first.

>I do not know, its probably not oke, to be sure i banned all religious imagery including the cross >I banned
On what authority? >the rest If we use your understanding of Graven Images then God told people to sin when he asked for angels atop the Ark of the Covenant. >which is That there is extra work or faith needed. I am saying that is very difficult to be virtuous while having so much monetary excess, but I now see you are disagreeing and saying it is actually impossible. The giving up of it is a good solution but you ignore people whose riches pertain to infrastructure used for the economy and things of the sort. Jesus' comments are exaggerating the difficulty of both having excess and being virtuous rather than saying you cannot be virtuous and have excess. I'm not even talking about you, I'm talking about your country. Regardless, God bless you man.
>Christology Unfortunately you cannot back any of that up with actual quotes from Jesus, only from those who wished to build a religion around him.
I think you should look up what qualifies one as a Messiah. It does not change even when you translate Messiah into Kristos. Same qualifications. Does Jesus fulfill these? HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM .>HMMMMMMMM HMMMMMMMM

Not all rich people, but i agree that it is most. There has to be a number that have overcome with Gods help. For example a widow that lives in a mansion (that all would consider rich) that would be too hard to sell ... and have it in her will to give away when she dies.

Why do you think images of angels are the same as God? They are not God. God is ONE and indivisible. >Jesus' comments are exaggerating the difficulty Tell yourself what you like.

>On what authority?
Literally the bible? god never commanded me or you or anyone else to make religious figures
he could also have said use this cross as my symbol , he did not , jesus was a carpenter he could had made crosses , or anything there is nothing...
No where do we see the cross turn up ? with this symbol you shall conquer and many died under new christianity
>god never commanded me or you or anyone else to make religious figures ....except the Ark of the Covenant. Anyway, I'm going to head to bed. 4am here.
