1325 entries for this category: Jesus wanted the rich man to evaluate his most important goal i.e. to be wealthy or a follower of Jesus. The rich man chose the riches since with these riches, he was considered important and was able to afford anything. Without the riches, the man needed to start from the beginning like everybody else. The disciples thought that children could not understand the word of Jesus and may interfere with the message of Jesus to others. Jesus, on the other hand, saw the non- critical attention of the children was the only way to appreciate his message to live by.
