Can a normal intelligence person become rich by obeying the bible?

My dad knows hundreds of rich people and they are all rich due to high IQ’s. None are rich due to good personality or beautiful looks except one person. The guy had a genius IQ but also worked 4-20 times harder than the average worker. He spent 8-18 hours climbing up the Grand Canyon in one day in his 60s or 70s and his wife joined him on the climb.

It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter into Heaven. God will not give you wealth if you are going to use it for your pleasures. A rich person can give $10 million to a church, but a poor man giving $10 is worth more to God than the rich man because he gives of himself and not of his wealth. So you will probably never be rich from obeying the Bible. But you will build up treasure in Heaven , where thieves cannot break in a steal your treasures.

i think following the bible and becoming rich just aren't possible cause greed is bad

but if you're asking if somebody can morally become rich, probably

Bible don't make you rich and is sinful to die whit a lot of treashures.
The bible had the purpuse to make your soul more rich for the afther life and healty for both lifes.
Jesus talk about money and say > "Give to Cesar what belong to Cesar and to God what belong to God". Whitch mean all the valuable materian belong to the emperors, but your fait and sould belong to God.
Your fait nobady can take it and God will reword thouse who put theyr trust in God.

Way too many people think wealth will make them happy. Most of the time you just change one set of problems with another set of problems. You go from trying to get rich to spending all your time trying to stay rich. Being wealthy just means, are they your friends because of your money. Worrying about your taxes, someone trying to kidnapping your kids. Wealth brings its own set of issues.

No. There are plenty of poor people trying hard to follow the Bible, and plenty of relatively rich people who have never read it.

Matthew 19:24 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.

No way I would never want to be rich.

The bible was created for the poor the same as most organised religions were just like reality TV is these days

I’m pretty sure Jesus directly says Wealth is Bad at least 15 times in the Bible so I would assume not

Yes, depending on what your definition of 'rich' is.
