Theological Significance of Children

Jesus made specific theologically significant statements with children in the midst of his disciples, or even in his arms. These statements, which are found in all three synoptic gospels, are not primarily concerned with urging adults to care for, teach (or venerate) children. They are about fundamentally important aspects of Christian theology: the Kingdom of God; greatness and humility; the change needed to enter the Kingdom of God; how welcoming a little child in the name of Jesus is a way of welcoming not only Jesus, but the One who sent him. This is the sixth and final book of the Children and Families in the Bible series and the lessons in this book are a "taster" of the deep theological significant of the child in Scripture. This booklet may be used for private study or as an instruction tool in studies and workshops in churches, amongst child care workers, or other settings. It is suitable for young adults and older (ages 18+) and is a downloadable book in PDF format.
