Question
Why does God say it is difficult the enter his Kingdom.  What does God expect from a true Christian?

Answer
Dear Ilse,



This occasion that Jesus talked about the kingdom, was because of a rich man who would not give up his money.  The kingdom is one of spirits.It exists now on earth. It is difficult to enter it if materialism has a hold on a person. The kingdom principles require us to be spiritual not materialistic.


Its difficult to be a spiritual person, if money and material things are your goal in life.


God is a spirit, not a human body and to contact and walk with God you have to do it with your spirit man.

Hope this helps?

God bless

Any question on religions and Christianity specifically.Jesus gave us the Keys to the Kingdom of God, through the Holy Spirit. We are ministers of the Holy Spirit and therefore we have access to God. God is the Spirit. So our answers come tempered by the hand of God.

I have been in the full time ministry for 20 years. I have lived by faith in God during this time.I have started several churches and 5 bible schools. Jesus spoke to me and asked me to do a deliverance ministry for Him in 1982. God bless
