Jesus wants children and all of us to be free to approach him.
Anyone who adulterates and harms the children, is damned and may as well wear a Millstone round their neck.
The Catholic Church has willfully allowed thousands of depraved priests to seriously harm tens of thousands of children round the world.
You shall know them by the fruit they bear.
“And they brought young children to Him, that He should touch them: and His disciples rebuked those that brought them. But when Jesus saw it, He was much displeased, and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto Me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God” - Mark 10:13-14
Jesus is telling his disciples to allow the children to come up to him. It’s only used in the other way because we rarely use “suffer” to mean “allow” these days.
Very good. I’m just used to people misusing that phrase to mean children are suffering.
