    Reversal Of Fortunes Series

    These words of Jesus were caring words of understanding. He was saying to these people, “I know your struggles. I understand what you are going through and I care.” The beatitudes may be prescriptive, but on one level may be descriptive. We will see both.

    Reversal of Fortunes Matthew 5:1-12 1 Now when he saw the crowds, he went up on a mountainside and sat down. His disciples came to him, 2 and he began to teach them, saying: 3 "Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 4 Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be ...read more

    Right Side Up In An Upside Down World Series

    Contributed by Mark Opperman on Oct 1, 2015
     | 5,589 views

    Rather than giving a list of ideals to strive for, Jesus was showing the people how widely available God’s kingdom was – even for ordinary, poor, ignorant, imperfect, despised people. The beatitudes describe their struggle & grace to thrive in adversity.

    Right Side Up in an Upside Down World Intro: The more I study the Sermon on the Mount, esp. the Beatitudes, the less prescriptive and the more descriptive they become to me. Here is what I mean by that. Last week as I shared them, I introduced the first one (poor in spirit) as a requirement for ...read more

    The Beatitudes of our Lord are powerful, holding before the world a descriptive picture of the true disciple of God. Centering in this message the poor in Spirit

    I. Introduction A. A man walks into a shoe store, and tries on a pair of shoes. "How do they feel?" asks the sales clerk. "Well ... they feel a bit tight." replies the man. The assistant promptly bends down and has a look at the shoes and the mans feet. "Try pulling out on the tongue." offers ...read more

    Our Mission From God

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Apr 2, 2015

     | 5,853 views

    As Christians, we are also on a mission-a mission from God. That mission is expressed throughout the Bible, including the Beatitudes. This mission statement is a rulebook or a map for our Christian life. The Beatitudes are the good news of grace.

    Those of you who have watched TV crime shows such as “CSI” or “Columbo” know that the main character is always on a mission-namely, to solve a crime. Also, anyone who has gone on a trip has also been on a mission-namely, to get to their destination. As Christians, we are ...read more

    New Year, New Heart

    The beginning of a new year is always a good time to make life changes. This sermon looks at the beattitudes as a framework for making resolutions of the heart for the new year.

    A. A woman named Jeanette Case from Erie, PA shared this story in Reader’s Digest. 1. Last year when I called my parents to wish them a happy New Year, my dad answered the phone and I asked him: “Well, Dad, what’s your New Year’s resolution?” 2. Her dad proudly replied: “To make your mother as ...read more

    We willingly accept the blessings, but must also embrace the responsibilities.

    BLESSED TO SEE GOD. Matthew 5:1-12. The Sermon on the Mount is directed towards those who are already disciples of Jesus (Matthew 5:1). This is important. It counters both those religious hopefuls who find the Beatitudes impossible to keep, and those religious moralists who glibly announce, “I ...read more

    Jesus spoke to the Disciples, and to the crowd, but He also speaks to us. He spoke to the 'poor in spirit' and explained that they were blessed. But, who and what are the poor in spirit? This sermon attempted to answer that question.

    Opening and Introduction In today's Gospel lesson, we heard the introduction to the most famous sermon that Jesus delivered, the Sermon on the Mount. 1. Setting the Stage When we align all four of the Gospels, we see that a lot has already happened with His ministry. He’s been baptized by ...read more

     | 870 views

    How can we find true, lasting happiness, blessedness? Let's find out in Matthew 5.

    What are the secrets of happiness, not just fleeting merrymaking, but that true, permanent happiness, called blessedness? They are not really so secret, but found in the Beatitudes (Matthew 5:1-12). Poor in Spirit Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. (Matthew 5:3 ...read more

    Being Light Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Aug 14, 2023
     | 2,805 views

    The Beatitudes teach the qualities that God works in the character of Christ's disciples. Then in Matthew 5:13-16 the emphasis turns to the influence Christians are to have in the world around them. The point of our text is that we let our light shine.

    Intro Immediately following the Beatitudes, Jesus uses two metaphors to declare the task given to his followers in the world. Those two metaphors are salt and light. We have examined the first one. Now we want to learn from the second metaphor, light. Our text today is Matt 5:14-16: "You are ...read more

    Contributed by Richard Tow on May 16, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 3,948 views

    In this exposition of Jesus's 8th Beatitude ("Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake"), we explore biblical revelation as to why persecution is a blessing, more specifically, what are the benefits of persecution for God's people.

    Intro We are considering the 8th Beatitude in Matthew 5:10: “Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, For theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” Persecution is a major theme in Scripture. We see it in the first family; it runs all through the Old and New Testaments; and in the ...read more
