Believe 7 – Humanity – Laity Sunday


John 3:16 (CEB)
16 God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him wonít perish but will have eternal life.

∑ Matthew 18:1-6 (CEB)
18 At that time the disciples came to Jesus and asked, ìWho is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?î

2 Then he called a little child over to sit among the disciples, 3 and said, ìI assure you that if you donít turn your lives around and become like this little child, you will definitely not enter the kingdom of heaven. 4 Those who humble themselves like this little child will be the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. 5 Whoever welcomes one such child in my name welcomes me.

6 ìAs for whoever causes these little ones who believe in me to trip and fall into sin, it would be better for them to have a huge stone hung around their necks and be drowned in the bottom of the lake.
