16. Then Jesus called for the children and said to the disciples, “Let the children come to me. Don’t stop them! For the Kingdom of God belongs to those who are like these children.
17. I tell you the truth, anyone who doesn’t receive the Kingdom of God like a child will never enter it.”
18. Once a religious leader asked Jesus this question: “Good Teacher, what should I do to inherit eternal life?”
19. “Why do you call me good?” Jesus asked him. “Only God is truly good.
20. But to answer your question, you know the commandments: ‘You must not commit adultery. You must not murder. You must not steal. You must not testify falsely. Honor your father and mother.’”
21. The man replied, “I’ve obeyed all these commandments since I was young.”
22. When Jesus heard his answer, he said, “There is still one thing you haven’t done. Sell all your possessions and give the money to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.”
