Jesus wept.

"So, you're either rich or poor? There's no middle? So why lament the alleged loss of the necessarily non-existent middle class?"

I don't think the poor will go to heaven, personally.

Or the rich.

Or the humble. Or sinners. Or righteous.

So it's an outrage about somebody that nobody thinks is right, because he says something that they don't believe is true but which, given their understanding of what he *should* believe, fails to live up to his attributed values.

Work righteousness.

For theirs is the kingdom of Heaven.


Right?

Correct.

the way is Narrow that leads to Eternal Life, few there be that find it.

Read the Book, the info is all there for those who Seek.

be blessed.

You will impress the management and who knows buy your way to the streets of gold.

or is he telling everyone to focus on ourselves, rise up against our oppressors, and the kingdom of god will be ours?

Where all his "donations" come from.

places where they spend their time listening to sermons about how God is blessing them because they are rich and have worked hard (using daddy's money as a starter). Then the pastor asks for money so he can live the abundant life too!

They walk out all smiling because they know they are "saved" unlike the poor who are being punished. They vote against aid to the poor because that would mean their taxes won't be cut but they love lotteries because the poor buy the most tickets in the hope of getting rich but the money goes to keep the rich from having to pay more school tax and pays for their kids' scholarships.

Like the ultra-wealthy Kenneth Copeland, Joel Osteen and others...

They haven't advocated for killing LGBTQ, feminists, and others yet, likely because they are too busy self-enriching themselves...

Another self appointed recipient of "divine enlightenment" straight from the Big Guy in the Sky no doubt. There is no evidence whatsoever for the existence of a idyllic paradise in the clouds. Just saying.....
