Jesus says that it's easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than a rich man to enter the Kingdom of Heaven. The disciples are incredulous and ask how it's possible that anyone might be saved. Jesus replies that all things are possible through God, but all things are not possible through man. Camel - a Christian perspectivehttp://biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew%2019:24&version=NIV2009-09-04T09:51:44-05:00
It's one of the most striking images Jesus' conjures up. The thought of a camel, a large pack animal, fitting through the minuscule eye of a needle is laughable. But, as Jesus goes on to say, even a camel through an eye of a needle or a rich man entering the Kingdom of God is not impossible when it comes to God.
