Jesus also told the disciple that He wasn't mak-
ing poverty a general condition to be a disciple.
But He did require that a disciple be ready to
give up all for His (Christ's) sake and the king-
dom's without expecting any return.
He who willingly did would not in the end be
the loser. He would receive in this life a hundred-
fold in "houses" and "lands" (material things)
and besides that eternal life Mark 10:29-30.
