Important step, that one. It demonstrates to us yet again in Scripture that Jesus is NOT demanding of our "riches" and demanding our material poverty...he is checking, testing us to see how important HE is compared to "stuff". Christ HAS to come first. Our hearts must be willing to do what is asked of us even if it pinches. What Jesus said next was equally important -- a camel could go through the eye of the needle easier than a rich person will go into heaven. The "eye of the needle" is a small gate in one of the walls in Jerusalem and in order for a camel to pass through it, the camel must get on their knees (which they can do, but is very painful).
