Jesus Christ » History of » Reproves the ambition of his disciples (at capernaum)
And they came into Capernaum. And, happening to be, in the house, he was questioning them - What, in the way, were ye discussing? And they were silent; for, with one another, they had discussed in the way, who should be greatest. And, taking a seat, he addressed the twelve, and saith unto them - If anyone willeth to be, first, he shall be, least of all, and, minister of all. read more.
And, taking a child, he set it in the midst of them, - and, folding it in his arms, said unto them - Whosoever, unto, one ofthese children, shall give welcome, upon my name, unto me, giveth welcome; and, whosoever, unto me, giveth welcome, not, unto me, giveth welcome, but, unto him that sent me. John said unto him - Teacher! we saw someone, in thy name, casting out demons, - and we forbade him, because he was not following with us. But, Jesus, said - Do not forbid him! For, no one, is there, who shall do a work of power in my name, and have power, soon, to revile me; For, whosoever is not, against, us, is, for, us; For, whosoever shall give you to drink a cup of water, in name that, Christ's, ye are, Verily! I say unto you, in nowise, shall lose his reward. And, whosoever shall cause to stumble one of these little ones that believe, it is, seemly, for him, rather, if there is hung a large millstone about his neck, and he is cast into the sea. And, if thy hand shall cause thee to stumble, cut it off, - it is, seemly, for thee, maimed, to enter into life, rather than having, the two hands, to depart into the gehenna, into the fire that is not quenched; And, if thy foot be causing thee to stumble, cut it off, - it is, seemly, for thee, to enter into life, lame, rather than having, the two feet, to be cast into the gehenna; And, if thine eye be causing thee to stumble, thrust it out, - it is, seemly, for thee, one-eye, to enter into the kingdom of God, rather than having, two eyes, to be cast into gehenna, Where, their worm, dieth not, and, the fire, is not quenched, For, everyone, with fire, shall be salted. Salt is, good: but, if, salt, become, saltless, wherewith will ye, prepare, it? Have, within yourselves, salt, and be at peace, one with another.

But there entered a reasoning among them, as to who of them should be greatest. And, Jesus, perceiving the reasoning of their heart, taking a child, placed it near himself, - and said unto them - Whosoever shall give welcome unto this child, on my name, unto me, giveth welcome; and, whosoever, unto me, giveth welcome, giveth welcome unto him that sent me forth. For, he who is least among you all, the same, is, great. read more.
