Your understanding of those things Jesus said is off, in either case.

1) He didn't say the rich can't get to heaven. He said it's harder for the rich to get to heaven. There were rich apostles and disciples.

2) He told people who wanted to be his immediate disciples that they had to give up what they had and follow him. We can't do that anymore since Jesus isn't around to preach anymore.

3) He gave out free food and healing miracles because he was a powerful cosmic being. Not because of some socialist beliefs.

4) He praised the poor woman who gave thoughtfully and from the bottom of her heart. That was not an indictment against the rich.

5) He whipped money changers because they weren't supposed to be doing that inside the Temple. That was not an indictment on money.

6) When it was talking about the meek and the humble who will inherit the earth, it was talking about spiritual matters. Not financial matters.
