Mistari Maarufu ya Biblia kutoka Matthew 18

Shirikisha

For where two or three are assembled in my name, I am there among them.”

Again, I tell you the truth, if two of you on earth agree about whatever you ask, my Father in heaven will do it for you.

He called a child, had him stand among them, and said, “I tell you the truth, unless you turn around and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven!

Whoever then humbles himself like this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

And whoever welcomes a child like this in my name welcomes me.

“I tell you the truth, whatever you bind on earth will have been bound in heaven, and whatever you release on earth will have been released in heaven.

So also my heavenly Father will do to you, if each of you does not forgive your brother from your heart.”

“But if anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a huge millstone hung around his neck and to be drowned in the open sea.

What do you think? If someone owns a hundred sheep and one of them goes astray, will he not leave the ninety-nine on the mountains and go look for the one that went astray?
