Mark 10:16
King James Version
16 And he took them up in his arms,
put his hands upon them,
and blessed them.
What does JESUS think of children?
What did He command us to do for them?
Scripture has the answers:
Matthew 18:1-7
King James Version
18 At the same time came the disciples unto Jesus,
saying,
Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?
2 And Jesus called a little child unto him,
and set him in the midst of them,
3 And said,
Verily I say unto you,
Except ye be converted,
and become as little children,
ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.
4 Whosoever therefore shall humble himself
as this little child,
the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
5 And whoso shall receive
one such little child in my name receiveth me.
6 But whoso shall offend one of these little ones
which believe in me,
it were better for him
that a millstone were hanged about his neck,
and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.
7 Woe unto the world because of offences!
for it must needs be that offences come;
but woe to that man by whom the offence cometh!
Matthew 18:10
King James Version
10 Take heed
that ye despise not one of these little ones;
for I say unto you,
That in heaven their angels do always behold
the face of my Father which is in heaven.
Luke 18:15-17
King James Version
15 And they brought unto him also infants,
that he would touch them:
but when his disciples saw it,
they rebuked them.
16 But Jesus called them unto him,
and said,
Suffer little children to come unto me,
and forbid them not:
for of such is the kingdom of God.
17 Verily I say unto you,
Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God
as a little child
shall in no wise enter therein.
