Bible Question: What scriptures are there that tell of Gods view of children |
Bible Answer: Hello Cathynz One clear passage is: Matthew 18:1-6 (ESV) At that time the disciples came to Jesus, saying, "Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?" [2] And calling to him a child, he put him in the midst of them [3] and said, "Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. [4] Whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. [5] "Whoever receives one such child in my name receives me, [6] but whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a great millstone fastened around his neck and to be drowned in the depth of the sea. The heart of God goes out to those who are weak, poor, helpless, etc. especially widows or orphans. The prophets (Isaiah in particular) are full of condemnations on those who take advantage of these people, children included. Steve |
