Luke 18:25 In-Context

23 But on hearing these words he was deeply sorrowful, for he was exceedingly rich.

24 Jesus saw his sorrow, and said, "With how hard a struggle do the possessors of riches ever enter the Kingdom of God!

25 Why, it is easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of God."

26 "Who then can be saved?" exclaimed the hearers.

27 "Things impossible with man," He replied, "are possible with God."
