Acts
34 Neither was there any among them that lacked: for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold,
35 And laid them down at the apostles’ feet: and distribution was made unto every man according as he had need.
The early Church members seems to be made up of those who sold their possessions and gave the proceedings to the Apostles.
If this rich young ruler would have sold all he had and gave to the poor he would have showed more faith than i would believe any one had.
But this man was obviously not a believer at that time, no more than any one else but that does not mean he could not become a believer.
He obviously had no way of knowing that Jesus was the very God.
Can you imagine the suffering he went through if he ever found out? and i have no doubt he would remember Jesus`s words to him.
