[“Just as the fishermen hide the hook with bait and covertly hook the fish, similarly, the crafty allies of the heresies cover their evil teachings and corrupt understanding with pietism and hook the more simple, bringing them to spiritual death.” ]

When the Apostles argued who would be greatest in heaven(sic).. Jesus took a liyttle child and said UNLESS they become as one of "these" they would not see the Kingdom of the Heavens..

"Greatest in Heaven"?, indeed.. The sub-Apostles or ones following them were no doubt just as prone to arrogance.. You think?.. Heaven is NOT gained by the SMART but by the faithful.. AND SIMPLE... Even the orthodox, you know, like some Jewish Rabbis...
