That scripture is referring to a passage that one would have take the bags off of a camel to get through. He was more referring to greed. You have to let go of your money when it is time to. Say to feed the poor. It's ok to be rich as long as you do good with it. It's actually Gods will. You will store treasure in heaven that way. What I am saying is don't give all of your riches away because then you become the poor. See God does want you to be rich. If he didn't, why would he tell the rich to give to the poor? The poor need to become rich so they can help other poor people and so on until everybody is rich. If there weren't greedy horders there would be plenty enough riches for everybody. Nobody would be poor. The greedy rich is who Jesus spoke of. Not the rich in general. Be rich so you can bless others in need and you'll have your treasures in heaven. If your not rich you can't do any good to earn any treasure in heaven. Remember when Jesus filled Peters nets completely full of fish? What do you think they did with the fish? Sold them for money!!! On earth is it is in heaven, the first line of Jesus's model prayer right?. There's mansions in heaven. There's streets of gold buddy!!! It's ok be rich!

I have to disagree with that. Storing your treasures in Heaven and not on earth is referring to not buying luxury things that we don't need and give the money to the poor instead. He didn't specify greedy rich people, He only said rich people in general.
This is why there are so many different religions and beliefs.
