16Just then a man came up to Jesus and asked, “Teacher, what good thing must I do to get eternal life?”

17“Why do you ask me about what is good?” Jesus replied. “There is only One who is good. If you want to enter life, keep the commandments.”

18“Which ones?” he inquired.

Jesus replied, “ ‘You shall not murder, you shall not commit adultery, you shall not steal, you shall not give false testimony, 19honor your father and mother,’ c and ‘love your neighbor as yourself.’ d ”

20“All these I have kept,” the young man said. “What do I still lack?”

21Jesus answered, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.”

22When the young man heard this, he went away sad, because he had great wealth.

The bible is pretty clear. But most people don't follow it, or follow some heretical nonsense version of it.

I’ve thrown this in my (rich) family members’ faces before, thanks for the quote.

Another favorite of mine to say to my family is that Jesus was “just a progressive Jew”, and that his main message was you didn’t need to go to the priests/rabbis/temple, everyone can have a direct connection to God. They hate that lol
