Luke 9:46-48

New Testament for Everyone

The nature of discipleship

⁴⁶ A dispute arose among them about which of them was the greatest. ⁴⁷ Jesus knew this quarrel was going on in their hearts, so he took a child and stood it beside him.

⁴⁸ “If you receive this child in my name,” he said, “you receive me. And anyone who receives me, receives the one who sent me. Whoever is the least among you—that’s the one who is great.”
