It is a norm, to see the little ones being adored and even spoilt in the church, by the women, by the elderly.
Yet, many times, I believe that the words of our Lord "Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child shall in no wise enter therein" (Luke 18:17) do not apply to that norm.
Yes, because of this norm, I've seen that ladies are usually preferred to teaching the younglings in the church. But it should not be so.
For I will make it a verse to meditate upon, the other saying of the Lord: But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him (or her) that a millstone were hanged about his (or her) neck, and that he (or she) were drowned in the depth of the sea. (Matthew 18:6)
A true love for the children of the Lord is one that makes the love of God a priority. So, to love the children more than...say...studying the Bible, taking theological classes, pray, medidate upon the laws of God, preaching the Gospel, godliness, holiness, righteousness and being the salt and light of the world, is a love corrupted indeed. For as such corruption is witnessed by the child, an offense to the babe is committed.
