Jesus says that worldly wealth makes it nearly impossible for a man to keep his mind set on God but, with God anything is possible. Wealthy churchgoers hear about this and let out a sigh of relief at the greatness of God, who provides them with this excuse to continue hoarding all their wealth and yet still remain Christian. In this way, rich churchgoers presume to strain the dirt and grit from God’s gospel with their man-made, diamond-studded sieves. But Christ says that God continues His work in men’s hearts despite their wealth.
