The short answer is, yes they can. Although, as several people have pointed out ,their money doesn't travel all that well.

The reason that Jesus told that rich man to sell everything and follow him was to prove how once you start loving your wealth and worldly possessions more than God, it will become impossible for you to actually follow Jesus and his teachings.

But that doesn't mean that God's blessings won't include the enough money to provide for your needs.

@Naka: So, if the Bible isn't divine in origin, please explain how it could be written by over 40 people, during the course of many years, and still all fit together, without contradicting itself? Just askin'.
