Luke 9:46-50

Who Is the Greatest?

46aNow an argument 1started among them as to which of them might be the greatest. 47But Jesus, aknowing 1what they were thinking in their heart, took a child and stood him by His side, 48and said to them, “aWhoever receives this child in My name receives Me, and whoever receives Me receives Him who sent Me; bfor the one who is least among all of you, this is the one who is great.”
49aAnd John answered and said, “bMaster, we saw someone casting out demons in Your name, and we tried to hinder him because he does not follow along with us.” 50But Jesus said to him, “Do not hinder him, afor he who is not against you is 1for you.”
