Jesus Christ, Bill Gates and a Teeny-Tiny Camel
"It's harder for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God than for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle." How many times have we heard this statement of Jesus? Does it imply that God plays favorites for the poor and disenfranchised? Or is there some truth to the Joel Osteen message of Divine providence for every believer? Where do the politically and socially powerful fit into the kingdom of God? We'll talk this week about how Jesus REALLY feels about the priveledged of society, and how we should feel about them and treat them.

just thought i would add a fact about bill gates. way back when, before he had a dime, he promised God that if God would make him very wealthy (financially), he would give all the money back through charity or other. guess what? bill kept his word. he has given billions away!
i believe this is why he has been so blessed, financially...to the tune of being the richest man on Earth!
