I tell you the truth, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child will never enter it.”
and said, “I tell you the truth, unless you turn around and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven!
But Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me and do not try to stop them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.”
Brothers and sisters, do not be children in your thinking. Instead, be infants in evil, but in your thinking be mature.
And yearn like newborn infants for pure, spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow up to salvation,
