May I hop on here?
Exactly although Jesus does have a child with him he is explaining a child-like faith. A "little one" was in reference to those not only newer in the faith who can be swayed but also any one that belongs to Him - see the parables that follow ( sheep, coin, son).
However, (for those still reading) do not be dismayed God knows everything and is the perfect judge and vengeance is His. Don't take from God what is rightfully His.
Harming the innocent shouldn't be defended like this disgusting woman was doing and won't be in less than a year now or in the judgement.
I think that’s why people make this error so often. Jesus held a child as He said this. The problem is this statement is so much more profound that simply harming a young child. It covers a vast amount of people. Those who reference this to simply “don’t hurt a small child” are misrepresenting what Jesus is saying. I’m sure they don’t mean to. We all aim to learn more from our savior and each other. Jesus statement here is powerful. Much more than those who are using it incorrectly understand.
Amen brother! I think if people would look up their favorite verses and read 10 or 20 verses in either direction they would gain a lot and appreciate the time.
Exactly. I hear that all the time. People pick and choose scripture, and if they would just read a few more lines, it explains itself, lol.
