but the disciples rebuked those who brought
them.
V14
- But when Jesus saw it, He was
greatly displeased and said to them, “Let
the little children come to me, and do not
forbid them; for such is the Kingdom of God.
V15
- Assuredly, I say to you,
whoever does not receive the Kingdom of God
as a little child will by no means enter
it.”
V16
- And He took them up in His
arms, laid His hands on them, and blessed
them. |
