Sell all your possessions and give the money to the poor and you will have treasure in heaven - Matthew 19:21
He was a good man who kept God's commandmetns,yet he was aware of an empty place in his life
Jesus called him to leave everything behind and follow him
The rich man wanted to follow Jesus but not as much as he wanted to hang on to his stuff
This reluctant young man ended his life as a sad case of unfulfilled potential
Neve see Jesus' call to follow him as a deal breaker
