Luke 18:16-18
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
16 But Jesus called them [[a]the parents] to Him, saying, Allow the little children to come to Me, and do not hinder them, for to such [as these] belongs the kingdom of God.
17 Truly I say to you, whoever does not accept and receive and welcome the kingdom of God like a little child [does] shall not in any way enter it [at all].
18 And a certain ruler asked Him, Good Teacher [You who are [b]essentially and perfectly [c]morally good], what shall I do to inherit eternal life [to partake of eternal salvation in the Messiah’s kingdom]?
