Jesus Explains Kingdom Entry
Open in the reader →1Jesus saw some little ones being suckled. He said to his disciples, “These little ones who are being suckled are like those who are to enter the Kingdom.” They said to him, “Shall we, being little ones, enter the Kingdom?” Jesus said to them, “When you make the two one; and when you make the inner like the outer and the outer like the inner, and the upper like the lower; and when you make the male and the female into a single one, so that the male is not male and the female not female; and when you make eyes in the place of an eye, and a hand in the place of a hand, and a foot in the place of a foot, and an image in the place of an image—then you will enter the Kingdom.”
