Obstacles to radical discipleship abound. Jesus is ruthlessly committed to exposing them to eliminate them, for His disciples then and for us now. From a radical eliminating of sin (9:43-48), to now the exhortation to pursue treasure in heaven over riches on earth. It’s certainly not about money being bad, but it is about those idols of the heart that occupy your affections and rob God of your unadulterated love for Him. He wants you to see that it’s far greater to belong to the King in His kingdom than to jealousy guard your belongings.
