To read the Bible in a year, read Mark 9.30–50 on March 3, In the year of our Lord 2017

By Don Ruhl

Truly, as the song says, “Jesus loves the little children, all the children of the world. Red and yellow, black and white, they are precious in His sight—Jesus loves the little children of the world.” Therefore, do not ever lead astray one child, for Jesus warns,

“But whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to stumble, it would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were thrown into the sea” (Mark 9.42). 

Many are the people in the world, who will have to answer the Lord for having taught children that they arrived by evolution rather than the creative power of God. Do everything you can to insure the salvation of children around you.

Questions:

  • What are you doing right now to help children believe in the Lord?
  • Have you prayed for children to know the Lord?
