Luke 9:46-50

461Now an argument 2started among them as to which of them might be the greatest. 47But Jesus, 3knowing 4what they were thinking in their hearts, took a child and had him stand by His side, 48and He said to them, “5Whoever receives this child in My name receives Me, and whoever receives Me receives Him who sent Me; 6for the one who is least among all of you, this is the one who is great.”

497John answered and said, “8Master, we saw someone casting out demons in Your name; and we tried to prevent him, because he does not follow along with us.” 50But Jesus said to him, “Do not hinder him; 9for the one who is not against you is 10for you.”
