Thematic Bible: Who not to despise


Thematic Bible




He called a child to him and had him stand among them, and he said, "I tell you, unless you change and become like children, you will never get into the Kingdom of Heaven at all. Anyone, therefore, who is as unassuming as this child is the greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven, read more.
and anyone who welcomes one child like this on my account welcomes me. But whoever hinders one of these children who believe in me might better have a great millstone hung around his neck and be sunk in the open sea. Alas for the world for such hindrances! They have to come, but alas for the man who causes them! "But if your own hand or your own foot makes you fall, cut it off and throw it away. You might better enter upon life maimed or crippled than keep both hands and feet but be thrown into the everlasting fire. And if your own eye makes you fall, dig it out and throw it away. You might better enter upon life with only one eye than be thrown with both eyes into the fiery pit. "Beware of feeling scornful of one single little child, for I tell you that in heaven their angels have continual access to my Father in heaven.
