Did poor people make it to heaven?

Yes, God doesn't care about how much money you have. If anything it could be easier due to the fact that is written"It is easier for a rich man to enter the eye of a needle, than enter the kingdom of Heaven". But one must be careful not to judge either, or paraphrase the bible out of context. The whole chapter that the phrase is found must be taken into account, anything else leads to a fault in ones position on the subject being discussed.


Can a wealthy Christian go to heaven?

AnswerThe synoptic gospels say that it is easier for a camel to go throught the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven.
