    23 Jesus then said to his disciples, “I assure you: it will be very hard for rich people to enter the Kingdom of heaven.

      Jesus also gives instructions for agitation:

      8 These were his instructions: “Take nothing for the journey except a staff—no bread, no bag, no money in your belts.

      9 Wear sandals but not an extra shirt.

      10 Whenever you enter a house, stay there until you leave that town.

      12 They went out and preached that people should repent.

      13 They drove out many demons and anointed many sick people with oil and healed them.
