Matthew 18:1

Holy Bible: Easy-to-Read Version

About that time the followers came to Jesus and asked, “Who is the greatest in God’s kingdom?”

See the chapter Copy

In whatever you do, don’t let selfishness or pride be your guide. Be humble, and honor others more than yourselves.

Whoever serves you like a servant is the greatest among you.

Love each other in a way that makes you feel close like brothers and sisters. And give each other more honor than you give yourself.

“Not everyone who calls me Lord will enter God’s kingdom. The only people who will enter are those who do what my Father in heaven wants.

John said, “Change your hearts and lives, because God’s kingdom is now very near.”

Jesus called a little child to come to him. He stood the child in front of the followers.
