Matthew 19:24 (b) The Lord uses this little article to illustrate the impossibility of entering Heaven by one's own resources. The needle mentioned in Luke 18:25 is a surgeon's needle, for Luke was a physician. The meaning, however, is the same in both cases. No one can be saved by his own merits, or assets, or resources, or religious activities. CHRIST only is the way to GOD.
