A lot of Jesus’ teaching was culturally shocking to the people of His time. One of those teachings was about who was greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven. The question was asked by His disciples, and Jesus had them call a child to demonstrate His answer: The greatest in the Kingdom of God was someone who was as dependent on God and innocent as a child. He added that anyone
that would welcome a little child on His behalf was welcoming Him. I can imagine the shock of the disciples, who had, at times, attempted to keep children away from Jesus thinking that He had more important issues to deal with. Through this we learn important lessons, not the least of which being that God values and loves children! It could be said that God holds a special place
for them. Jesus told His disciples, “I say to you that in heaven their angels always see the face of My Father who is in heaven” (MATTHEW 18:10). What are we to make of this special placement of children in the Kingdom of God?

The One who created humanity, the One who chose the nation of Israel itself, being rejected by them, has a different depth to it. In Matthew, we are t...

First Gospel Written; Mark 1-3
The Gospel of Mark is action-packed and vividly records the miracles and works of Jesus Christ. It is relatively short, is believed to be the first and earliest gospel written, and it records the acts and achievements of Jesus as the Christ, our Lord and Saviour. Though the work itself does not n...
