Bringing Children to Jesus
Mark 10:13-16 ESV
13 And they were bringing children to him that he might touch them, and the disciples
rebuked them.14 But when Jesus saw it, he was indignant and said to them, "Let the
children come to me; do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of God. 15
Truly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child shall not
enter it." 16 And he took them in his arms and blessed them, laying his hands on them.
