What part of sell your possessions did you not understand?
Jesus preached about an immanent kingdom of god on earth in which the poor and downtrodden would rule and the rich would suffer. His suggestion to sell ALL your possessions would make sense in that context as does the comment about rich men, camels, and eyes of needles. . . . . Of course it's about 4000 to to 6000 generations later and the kingdom still hasn't come. So maybe we should consider the possibility he was wrong about that.

If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
