Luke 18:24-27 Part 2 of 2

When Jesus saw this, he said, "How hard it is for the rich to enter the Kingdom of God! In fact, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the Kingdom of God!" Those who heard this said, "Then who in the world can be saved?" He replied, "What is impossible for people is possible with God."

"In fact, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the Kingdom of God!"
Matthew 19:23-24  Then Jesus said to his disciples, "I tell you the truth, it is very hard for a rich person to enter the Kingdom of Heaven. I'll say it again--it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the Kingdom of God!"
Luke 6:24  "What sorrow awaits you who are rich, for you have your only happiness now."
 
Those who heard this said, "Then who in the world can be saved?" He replied, "What is impossible for people is possible with God." 
Genesis 18:13-14  Then the LORD said to Abraham, "Why did Sarah laugh? Why did she say, 'Can an old woman like me have a baby?' Is anything too hard for the LORD? I will return about this time next year, and Sarah will have a son."
Job 42:1-2  Then Job replied to the LORD: "I know that you can do anything, and no one can stop you."
