Turn And Become Like Children

Key Verse 03: “and said, “Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.

1. What question did the disciples ask Jesus? Why might they have asked this question?
2. How did Jesus answer their question? What does it mean to “turn and become like children”?
3. Why do you think someone will “never enter the kingdom of heaven” if they don’t “become like children”?
4. V4. Consider the kingdom of heaven. Why do you think Jesus correlates being humble like a child with greatness in the kingdom of heaven?
5. V5. What do you think it means to receive a child? Why might this be difficult?
6. V6. What do you think it means to “cause one of these little ones who believe in me to sin”?
7. Why might the punishment for causing a little one to sin be so extreme?
8. Why does Jesus use such a vivid description of punishment for those who cause little ones to sin?
