Matthew 18:1-4
New Living Translation (NLT)
The Greatest in the Kingdom
18 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.
Jesus used a child to help His self-centered disciples get the point. We are not to be childish, {like the disciples, arguing over petty issues}, but rather childlike, with humble and sincere hearts. Are you being childlike, or childish?
