Of children is the kingdom of God
Receiving and caring for a child is as if it were Jesus himself:
Not only should we be attentive to the pastor, bishop or other person "important" to us, but God gives us to understand that a child deserves the same reception as if it were himself.
Hard warning for those who trip one of these little ones who believe in Jesus:
"And whosoever shall cause one of these little ones that believe in me to sin, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea." (Matthew 18: 6)
Jesus commands not to despise children:
"See that you do not despise one of these little ones; for I say to you that his angels in heaven always see the face of my Father who is in heaven. "(Matthew 18:10)
Jesus said we have to be like children to enter his kingdom:
"And he said: Truly I say to you, unless you turn and become like little children, you will not enter the kingdom of heaven." (Matthew 18: 3)
If we do not turn and act like children - in their humility, faith and malice - we can not enter the kingdom of heaven, since these qualities of children are indispensable for the Christian life.
God hears the praise of children:
Praise to God is perfected. No famous Christian singer can be equated to a child. A child's praise of praise, which can disturb some adults, is listened to with great complacency and attention up there in the heavens.
This also means that they do not need repentance, therefore, they do not require baptism. In this regard many people wonder about the eternal destiny of children who die without the baptism that fosters Roman Catholicism or other churches or sects ... however, we must pay attention to what the Bible says, and is clear that " the soul that sins, that will die "(Ezekiel 18:20).
Therefore, if a child dies, his eternal destiny is heaven because of it is the kingdom of God. Baptism and repentance is for sinners, that is, adult people like us who can discern between good and evil.
Receiving and caring for a child is as if it were Jesus himself:
"And whoever receives a child like this in my name receives me." (Matthew 18: 5)
Not only should we be attentive to the pastor, bishop or other person "important" to us, but God gives us to understand that a child deserves the same reception as if it were himself.
Hard warning for those who trip one of these little ones who believe in Jesus:
"And whosoever shall cause one of these little ones that believe in me to sin, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea." (Matthew 18: 6)
A child can be called by God to exercise a ministry:
A child can also be taken into account to exercise a "great" ministry such as the complex ministry of prophecy. Jeremiah was used by God to be a prophet, even though he was a child who did not know much nor could he speak very well.
For the Glory of God, My Little Sons ABRAHAM AND JONATAN serve the Lord in Worship, Dance and Theater.
You are a child?
Then get ready, because you do not know if the Lord can call you right now to preach His Word ...
