What do you think about what Jesus said to the rich young ruler in Matt 19:21 Jesus told him, "If you want to be complete, go and sell all you have and give the money to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me."?

Never noticed this thread...
I think it proves that Christ demands that we are to be willing to give up what is most precious to us before we can be saved. If anything is more precious to us than Christ then he can't be our LORD. The thing we can't give up is lord. Jesus knew the heart of the rich young ruler and knew that if he was willing to give up his money, then he'd be willing to give up ALL sin, but money was his god.
