(Lesson 4127)(05-11-23) Matthew 18:5-6
“And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me. 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.”
Today’s qoute is an extension of yesterday’s lesson in that it is misrepresented by most “Christian” organizations today.
In the quote, Jesus in essence, said that, those who are guilty of interfering with new believers would be better off being drowned than facing the consequences of their actions.
Again, WE MUST REMEMBER, “Little Child” as that phrase is applied in today’s quote, WAS NOT specifically a reference to children. Jesus was referencing those adults who (like a child) are new to knowledge of, and belief in, Him.~
