A sweeping intellectual history of the role of wealth in the church in the last days of the Roman Empire Jesus taught his followers that it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter heaven. Yet by the fall of Rome, the church was becoming rich beyond measure. Through the Eye of a Needle is a sweeping intellectual and social history of the vexing problem of wealth in Christianity in the waning days of the Roman Empire, written by the world's foremost scholar of late antiquity. Peter Brown examines the rise of the church through the lens of money and the challenges it posed to an institution that espoused the virtue of poverty and called avarice the root of all evil. Drawing on the writings of major Christian thinkers such as Augustine, Ambrose, and Jerome, Brown examines the controversies and changing attitudes toward money caused by the influx of new wealth into church coffers, and describes the spectacular acts of divestment by rich donors and their growing influence in an empire beset with crisis. He shows how the use of wealth for the care of the poor competed with older forms of philanthropy deeply rooted in the Roman world, and sheds light on the ordinary people who gave away their money in hopes of treasure in heaven. Through the Eye of a Needle challenges the widely held notion that Christianity's growing wealth sapped Rome of its ability to resist the barbarian invasions, and offers a fresh perspective on the social history of the church in late antiquity.

What are we to do with this topic of discussion called the "needle's eye," or is it the "eye of a needle"? What should we do with all the books, literature and historical evidence that supports the belief that there really were "wicket gates" or doors in the gates of many ancient cities referred to as "needle's eyes." Lyndon B. Stimeling takes a fresh look at an old story; that old story of entrance into the kingdom of God. The example of the camel and the needle's eye could have an effect on you and your eternal destiny. From the author of "Common Thoughts on the Word." Lyndon B. Stimeling is a free lance writer who lives with his wife and son near Richfield PA.

I quoted the above from the Bible, that it is easier for a Camel to go through a needle's eye, than for a rich man to enter into the Kingdom of God. The same is also written in Mat 19:24 and Mar 10:25. In this book, I am going to investigate this whole scenario of just how it is that riches can corrupt a person, and how we are all potential victims, but I am also going to provide you with answers to the problem, with solutions to one of the biggest enemies of our time....money. Too many books have been written where there are so many quotations from the Bible that it appears as if some tried to rewrite the Bible, which is the main reason why I am going to keep quotes from the Bible to a bare minimum. I am writing all chapters in layman's terms, in a way that it will be easy to read and even easier to relate to. Only in the second last Chapter, I found it necessary to copy more versus from the Bible, to lend authority to the points I am putting across.
