[@pfeliciano4062]

People have to be nice to each other and guide each other and move each other without rejecting. There’s a big difference between guiding and rejecting. The sexuality is a big issue when people pursue passions of the same sex, that goes against Gods command. Much like eve could’ve eaten out of all the fruits except the forbidden one, heterosexuals can choose anyone they want but their own gender. It’s a matter of obedience, Eve didn’t care and clearly that’s why we all have to die now. There’s also a big difference between having feelings and acting upon them, it only becomes a sin if the person goes and acts upon those desires and has a relationship with the person of the same sex. If a person has homosexual feelings but loves God above all things and gives him/herself fully to God and chooses not to give in to disobedience then it is not a sin. 1 Corinthians 10:13 “No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.”

You are actually referring to the exact same verse Rafter is quoting except you are using the King James wording which is a translation issue from Greek to English. The verse actually says "Permit" or "allow" the children to come to me as it reads in the original Greek text. More recent English translations are more accurate by using the terms permit or allow instead of suffer. Chalk this up as more of a language translation issue and not a Jesus contradicting himself issue. But yes the kids are awesome so no problem with giving them the attention and praise they deserve.
