When I think about the many forms of crime and cruelty against children today it truly breaks my heart. :12:

Jesus loved the little ones very much and had strong words for those who mistreat children. Matthew 18:1-7

1At the same time came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?

2And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them,

3And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.

4Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

5And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me.

6But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.

7Woe unto the world because of offences! for it must needs be that offences come; but woe to that man by whom the offence cometh!

A judge once said " If you can't love them don't have them".

Sadly many don't and thus have abortions .     OH but loved sister , I know what you meant by that .

The key is ,    LEARN FROM CHRIST and we have the LOVE that comes FROM GOD on our hearts .     You are loved miss muffet .     You are loved .     Put those hands up and praise the Lord .

You forgot one central premises:

Jeremiah 19:5 5They have built the high places of Baal to burn their children in the fire as offerings to Baal-something I did not command or mention, nor did it enter my mind.

Also when jesus said not to offend one of these little ones he also meant a new born again Christian. A babe in christ. If you cause them to fall to sin and stumble it would be better if you were dead. He does not take it light when a new child of God is mislead and mistreated.
