Unfortunately, it’s far too common in fundamentalist groups that kind of unforgiving reading of scripture. The flip side of it is the “prosperity gospel” if you are “right” with God everything will be wonderful, you’ll be rich and happy.
“And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.”
- Matthew 19:24
