"Then there arose a reasoning among them, which of them should be greatest. And Jesus, perceiving the thought of their heart, took a child, and set him by him, And said unto them, Whosoever shall receive this child in my name receiveth me: and whosoever shall receive me receiveth him that sent me: for he that is least among you all, the same shall be great."
Today's quote relates that when the apostles of Jesus argued among themselves as to who should be the "greatest" among them, Jesus used the example of the acceptance for the responsibility for a child to express that among the children of God, there is no "greatest". Jesus then went further to say, "Whosoever shall receive this child in my name receiveth me: and whosoever shall receive me receiveth him that sent me: for he that is least among you all, the same shall be great." Therefore, to express absolute faith in Jesus Christ is greatness in the sight of our Lord Jesus Christ.~
