    Blessed are you, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.   Rejoice, and be exceedingly glad:  for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you. Matthew 5: 11-12 In history Jesus has received…

    [ad] Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Matthew 5:10 Along with the good news comes some bad news. There had to be a catch somewhere, didn’t there?  Well, here it is in both the eighth and ninth beatitudes.   Blessings and rewards are still there,…

    [ad] Blessed are the peacemakers:  for they shall be called the children of God. Matthew 5:9 This sounds simple enough.  Peacemakers are called God’s children. By whom?  When?  Why?  Where?  Will this buy bread? Most people think peace is a good idea, as long as they get their own way.   When they don’t get…

    [ad] Blessed are the pure in heart:  for they shall see God. Matthew 5:8 No doubt the least visited discussion topic is purity. Can you remember the last time you had a good conversation about it?  Think about radio and television talk shows.  Have any of those dedicated a show to this subject?  And what…

    Blessed are the merciful:  for they shall obtain mercy. Matthew 5:7 No doubt the most popular short prayer in every culture is, “God have mercy.” Even when abbreviated simply to “God,” or sometimes “Oh, God” our petition is the same.  We ask God to be merciful with us, and hope he will.  This prayer expresses…

    [ad] Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied. Matthew 5:6 Everyone imagines their motives are pure.  Ask anyone why he made a particular choice and they always give a righteous reason.  You have never heard anyone say, “I did that just to be mean, ugly, and stupid.” It…

    [ad] Blessed are the meek:  for they shall inherit the earth. Matthew 5:5 Here in the third beatitude, again there is a word that gives some negative feelings.  On first glance, meek implies weakness.  A popular idea of a meek person is one who lacks spirit and courage.  A second look at the dictionary yields other…

  • The Beatitudes Bible Study: Matthew 5:4 They That Mourn

    [ad] Blessed are they that mourn:  for they shall be comforted. Matthew 5:4 The second beatitude pivots around another word with negative connotations.  Mourning usually carries the idea of survivors grieving after a death.   But here mourn has a different meaning. Broadly speaking, mourning is the emotion of sadness.  In this beatitude Jesus puts value…

    Blessed are the poor in spirit:  for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven. Matthew 5:3 The first Beatitude blessing promise is to the poor in spirit. The Kingdom of Heaven is here, now, as opposed to some hereafter place.  “The Kingdom of God,” Jesus said, “is within you.” Jesus’ promise is that the poor in…
