The Opposite of Rich
We American Christians have a lot in common with the Rich Young Man who came to Jesus asking what he should do to inherit eternal life. Compared with our Christian brothers and sisters in almost all parts of the world, even those of us who are poor in America are typically richer than the poor elsewhere. Jesus tells him -and us - “Go and sell what you own and give the money to the poor and you will have treasure in heaven; then come follow me.” Wow. How could anybody do that?
