Now they were bringing even infants to him that he might touch them; and when the disciples saw it, they rebuked them. But Jesus called them to him, saying, \u201cLet the children come to me, and do not hinder them; for to such belongs the kingdom of God. Truly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child shall not enter it.\u201d<\/p>\n
And a ruler asked him, \u201cGood Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?\u201d And Jesus said to him, \u201cWhy do you call me good? No one is good but God alone. You know the commandments: \u2018Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Honor your father and mother.\u2019\u201d And he said, \u201cAll these I have observed from my youth.\u201d And when Jesus heard it, he said to him, \u201cOne thing you still lack. Sell all that you have and distribute to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.\u201d But when he heard this he became sad, for he was very rich. Jesus looking at him said, \u201cHow hard it is for those who have riches to enter the kingdom of God! For it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.\u201d Those who heard it said, \u201cThen who can be saved?\u201d But he said, \u201cWhat is impossible with men is possible with God.\u201d And Peter said, \u201cLo, we have left our homes and followed you.\u201d And he said to them, \u201cTruly, I say to you, there is no man who has left house or wife or brothers or parents or children, for the sake of the kingdom of God, who will not receive manifold more in this time, and in the age to come eternal life.\u201d<\/p>\n
