    Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Aug 12, 2019
     | 4,660 views

    We started looking into the beatitudes last week by seeing how being poor in spirit, mourning and being meek are things that bring blessing into our lives. Today we continue by looking at how we are blessed by hungering and thirsting for righteousness and being merciful.

    THE SERMON ON THE MOUNT (part two) Matthew 5:6-7 Beatitudes mean declarations of blessedness. The term blessedness means joy. Therefore, the state of blessedness would be a state of joy, which is more than just happy. Blessedness refers to the distinctive spiritual joy of those who are saved. We ...read more

    Are we being obedient to Jesus (building our house on the rock) or are we being disobedient (building on sand)? What does obedience mean? This is a challenge to be obedient.

    Danger! Keep out. Beware of the dog! Don’t talk to strangers. Follow me. Make sure you’re home by midnight! Failure to comply will have consequences.
