Matthew 19:21-23

International Children’s Bible

²¹ Jesus answered, “If you want to be perfect, then go and sell all the things you own. Give the money to the poor. If you do this, you will have a treasure in heaven. Then come and follow me!”

²² But when the young man heard this, he became very sad because he was very rich. So he left Jesus.

²³ Then Jesus said to his followers, “I tell you the truth. It will be very hard for a rich person to enter the kingdom of heaven.
