The Kingdom must be received as a gift and not by a human effort. The point of comparison is the usual openess and receptivity of children. It may be enter only by those who know they are helpless, without claim or merit.

Jesus compare the character of a child to those who receive Him. Because the quality of a child has the simplicity, innocense and pure of heart without mixture of any pretension. To develop this quality we should totally give or surrendered ourselves to the Lord. and to be cloth with the Spirit of Humlity.

The innocence quality of children and the humility is the requirement for entrance to the kingdom of heaven. These qualities are increased by practising them.

The qualities of the children are not prone to sins, innocent to do some thing bad still guided by father and mother, they donot know what is right and what is wrong and still pastured by milk, afraid to commit mistakes to other children, patience with harmonious play to others, easy to cry when have problems.The ability to recieved spiritually that maturely know what is right and what is wrong instead of going to sinful life we choose to go in life of righteousness, not to commit sins, even we are not perfect and have shortscoming, we can avoid intentional mistakes for we are mature in gods commandment and spiritually received the truth in the bible from gods words.

The Little Children and Jesus

They were bringing to him little children, that he should touch them, but the disciples rebuked those who were bringing them. But when Jesus saw it, he was moved with indignation, and said to them, "Allow the little children to come to me! Don't forbid them, for the Kingdom of God belongs to such as these. Most certainly I tell you, whoever will not receive the Kingdom of God like a little child, he will in no way enter into it." He took them in his arms, and blessed them, laying his hands on them.
