The Revelation of Jesus with Rick Sterling!

Except as a Child~

"Truly I say to you, unless you are converted and become like children, you will not enter the kingdom of heaven". Matt. 18:3.

There are two, and only two states of being in the being of a Human Being. These two states have nothing to do with biology, i.e. the gender of that human being, or the biological processes that sustain life, whether male or female. It has nothing to do with the fact that females are said to process information differently than do males; the information still gets processed and used. Jesus understood the identity of this state of being, which is why He made the statement above.  The states of being a human are only two; you are either an adult or you are a child.

This is dramatically demonstrated as played out in Portland and Seatle and seen in the difference between a protestor and a rioter. A protestor is someone that has taken a stand either for or against something, and PEACEFULLY gathers with other like minded people to express their views (this is guaranteed in the Constitution of the USA). These people are adults, in that they have a conviction that they wish to make know, and they do so in a way that does no harm to anyone else. They have self-control and accountability. 

Then there is a rioter, that can also be either an adult of a child. If they are a child they will lash out physically as an emotional reaction to not getting their way in life, and throw a tantrum that harms others, for which hey don't believe they will be held accountable, and are surprised and get mad when they are arrested. The worst cast is when a rioter is an adult that knows what the are doing, having made the choice to destroy poperty and harm others, either for money or for sheer spite. 

Jesus said we must first be converted to the truth, then become as a child to begin to learn it, and become an Adult.
