Does the Bible Say You Can't Be Rich?

Does the Bible say you can't be rich if you want to enter heaven? As someone who follows Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, I, too, have struggled with the idea of accumulating financial wealth, especially since Jesus had so much to say about the rich not entering heaven. Through prayer and Godly counsel, I have come to reconcile this, though it remains a journey. In this video, I'll share where I'm at in my journey with you.

My name is Sam Kwak, and I'm a financial professional who has been teaching finances since 2015. As a Christian on a journey with Christ, I have wrestled with various questions of faith and worldview, particularly when it comes to money. This video is for me as much as it is for you. I'm not here to pretend that I have everything figured out. Instead, I want to share what I feel God has laid on my heart and how He continues to work in my life. Does being rich disqualify you from entering heaven? Let's explore this together, considering the teachings of Jesus, the examples of wealthy biblical figures, and the true meaning of having God as the king of our hearts. Join me as we peel back the layers and seek to understand what it truly means to follow God and manage wealth according to biblical principles. #biblicalfinance #christianwealth #faithandmoney #kingdomofgod #biblicalwisdom #wealthandfaith #spiritualjourney

This video is a refreshing take on a common question: can Christians be rich? Sam Kwak thoughtfully explores the relationship between wealth, identity, and faith, reminding us that true riches come from serving others and finding freedom in God's love.

Can see your heart is truly for the LORD, this was so well explained. I am sure JESUS would be proud of you. Thanks for being a steward of GOD and the good works you put out to the world.

Pretty simple principle, the more time you put into something the more important it is to you .. the more worship-worthy it is to you. If you spend your life trying to build wealth in this world you won't have as much time for building spiritual wealth. "For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also" Matthew 6:21 ..

10:58 Great testimony on the power of God, personal relationship with Jesus and our true identity. Thanks for your leadership in faith and finance!

In Christ all things possible. As long as you not full of pride and you help give back in Christ your riches.

[demetripapachristopoulos]

I admire your willingness to share your faith and explore the question of the compatibility between monetary wealth and faith. Very relevant.

I keep Faith in Jesus even as I constantly struggle to provide groceries and basic necessities for my children both of my sons are special needs taking care of them can be overwhelming at times but I seek and find comfort in our Lord Jesus. God has carried me through so far. Faith is all we need.💕❤️❤️All things are possible with Our HEAVENLY FATHER.

Great video, good point is about identity. "For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also." Luke 12:34. Thank you for sharing!

Love this video! I’d be all for more related to Biblical money management.

Nowhere does jesus one cannot be rich. Nowhere. Some of His finest followers were super rich.

[borrowedtruths]

First off, define "rich." How much is too much and how little is not enough? The wealth of this world can only be used for this world, all we who have been born-again have is what we have been given out of the treasure house of the Almighty. The heart is what the Lord looks at, and if you have been saved by grace through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, you will always have enough.

When he asked the rich man to give away all of his wealth and he refused. Jesus was saddened because he knew people were attached to worldly possessions.
If you follow God’s teachings and principles which means you have done your role-let him lead you, you have done right.
Picking jobs because of income instead of for improving your society. Monetizing by saying 60, 000 is rich is an excuse to include others to diminish your guilt on your journey to wealth is not the way of God. That is hypocritical as you know many people in our country are struggling. You are perpetuating a narrative that gaslights.

The Old Testament is not the New Testament.

[rmanning]

It's Matt 6:19-20 and not chapter 9. I Tim 6:10 For the love of money is the root of evil.

[cygnusrays]

Generosity and a mentality or confidence of abundance,  creates a flow that means 'God' provides when you need it. I've lived below the bread line my whole life,  yet my needs are always met.

Interesting statistics,  goes goods are in the US,  60K will barely keep a rental roof over your head in Australia.

R U kidding yourself, when does obtaining material possesions and suffering go hand in hand? 🤔🙏

This video is about Judaism and not about Christianity. This video crucifies Christ.
