<note>JESUS STATED, &#34;it is harder for a wealthy person to achieve the Kingdom of Heaven, then for a camel to go through an eye of a needle.&#34; (Matthew 19:24.)

Today millions of our upper and middle class enjoy an afflu-ence that our ancestors and the rest of the world could only dream about. Are we then being blinded by our affluence and thus missing the specific message of Jesus Christ? Our country has been weakened and certainly our &#34;lost&#34; moral fiber makes us wonder whether we are still being blessed by God.

This book analyzes these questions in laymens terms and makes one search their own heart. It further analyzes the problems and sins of the affluent. From the Biblical perspective are added related subjects of our affluent society such as abortion, homosexuality. marriage, divorce, women's liberation, and dealing with people. This book also has a complete scripture reference glossary on the topics dicussed.

This is an exciting counseling tool for any affluent person, their friend or relative.</note>
