the greatest

Just read this & absorb it...


Matthew 18

1 About that time the disciples came to Jesus and asked,

"Who is greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven?"  

2 Jesus called a little child to him and put the child among them.

3 Then he said,

"I tell you the truth, unless you turn from your sins and become like little children,

you will never get into the Kingdom of Heaven.

4 So anyone who becomes as humble as this little child is the greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven.

  5 "And anyone who welcomes a little child like this on my behalf is welcoming me.

6 But if you cause one of these little ones who trusts in me to fall into sin,

it would be better for you to have a large millstone tied around your neck

and be drowned in the depths of the sea.  

7 "What sorrow awaits the world, because it tempts people to sin.

Temptations are inevitable,

but what sorrow awaits the person who does the tempting.


  10 "Beware that you don't look down on any of these little ones.

For I tell you that in heaven their angels are always in the presence of my heavenly Father.
