Didn’t say it’s impossible just said it is difficult. Money is a test like many other things. Use it towards good is good use it towards bad is bad.

It is EASIER to fit a camel through the eye of a needle than it is for a rich man to enter heaven. It is EASIER to perform an impossible task than it is for rich people to go to heaven.

Why not just say impossible then?

I agree, and still don't think that's what it means.

Because hyperbolic metaphors make for good speeches? Puts things in perspective. Makes his words more convincing. Are you saying it’s not an impossible task?

Yeah, mistakes happen. One of such mistakes may be examining the Bible without proper context. Some context you might find helpful here is Matthew 19:16-26, instead of just the quote of 19:24 out of context.
