"Assuredly, I say to you, unless you are converted and become as little children, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven." Matthew 18:3. If you have ever had any questions about this scripture, this is the sermon for you. What qualities do little children have that we must recapture or restore in ourselves? Outlined in this sermon are more than a dozen qualities of a child that we must give serious thought to as we strive to become children of God. The older we get the harder it is to go back to the traits of a little child.
