We said that the Beatitudes speak of God’s personal concern for us; that they declare nine positive facts, that they emphasize proper perspective in ...read more

    Our Loss - His Gain

    Contributed by J. Yeargin on Nov 30, 2006
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,652 views

    I want us all to understand that when the Bible talks about the “last days”, it is not our last days. Rather these are the last days for the devil, and his evil.

    OUR LOSS – HIS GAIN In spite of the more recent developments, I am overall encouraged (although not completely satisfied) by how our nation is responding to what it stands for. I know the Bible has warned us that we are living in the “last days”. Nevertheless, those people with any kind of moral ...read more

    If one is going to live according to the principles & promises laid out here by our Lord in the beatitudes, he will suffer rejection from the world. Yet, through it all, he can be doubly blessed.

    In the Beatitudes, Jesus describes the qualities found in the lives of those who are truly happy. Not in the temporary, circumstantial sense which the world talks about, but in the eternal, ultimate sense which the world knows nothing about. He tells us that true happiness comes when one gains the ...read more

     | 4,928 views

    If we are to know the happiness God has in mind for His children, we need to understand sanctification.

    We have seen how the Beatitudes are progressive in nature, beginning with our gaining the proper perspective on salvation, which leads us to mourn over personal sin, which leads us to an attitude of humility with regards to self and a deep desire to be like Jesus. This is work of God in our life is ...read more
