Thematic Bible: Who not to despise


Thematic Bible




And he called a child to him, and set him in the midst of them, and said, Truly do I say to you, Unless ye are changed, and become as children, ye will not enter the kingdom of heaven. Whoever therefore shall humble himself as this child, he is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. read more.
And whoever receiveth one such child in my name, receiveth me. But whoever shall cause one of these little ones that believe in me to fall away, it were better for him to have a great millstone hung round his neck, and be swallowed up in the depth of the sea. Woe to the world because of stumblingblocks! For it must needs be that stumblingblocks come; but woe to the man through whom the stumblingblock cometh! And if thy hand or thy foot is causing thee to fall, cut it off, and cast it from thee; it is better for thee to enter into life maimed or lame, than having two hands, or two feet, to be cast into the everlasting fire. And if thine eye is causing thee to fall, pluck it out, and cast it from thee; it is better for thee to enter into life with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into hellfire. Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say to you, that their angels in heaven continually behold the face of my Father who is in heaven.
