Mark 9:33-37 (English Standard Version)
33And they came to Capernaum. And when he was in the house he asked them, “What were you discussing on the way?” 34But they kept silent, for on the way they had argued with one another about who was the greatest. 35And he sat down and called the twelve. And he said to them, “If anyone would be first, he must be last of all and servant of all.” 36And he took a child and put him in the midst of them, and taking him in his arms, he said to them, 37 “Whoever receives one such child in my name receives me, and whoever receives me, receives not me but him who sent me.”
If we are to understand how to live in the Kingdom of God, we must listen to the Lord!
1. He teaches us through the disciples behavior.
2. He teaches us through the little child.
3. He teaches us about Himself.
