2 So Jesus called a child to come and stand in front of them,
3 and said, “I assure you that unless you change and become like children, you will never enter the Kingdom of heaven.
4 The greatest in the Kingdom of heaven is the one who humbles himself and becomes like this child.
5 And whoever welcomes in my name one such child as this, welcomes me.
6 “If anyone should cause one of these little ones to lose his faith in me, it would be better for that person to have a large millstone tied around his neck and be drowned in the deep sea.
7 How terrible for the world that there are things that make people lose their faith! Such things will always happen—but how terrible for the one who causes them!
8 “If your hand or your foot makes you lose your faith, cut it off and throw it away! It is better for you to enter life without a hand or a foot than to keep both hands and both feet and be thrown into the eternal fire.
