    Persecuted: Why? Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on May 1, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,653 views

    The Beatitudes are a beautiful picture of the character of Christ and of consecrated Christians. Why would such a lifestyle depicted in the first seven beatitudes provoke persecution rather than admiration and esteem?

    Intro In our study of the Beatitudes, we come to the eighth beatitude. It is recorded in Matthew 5:10: “Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, For theirs is the kingdom of heaven.”i The reward declared in this final beatitude is the same as declared in the first ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 3,983 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

    Finding True Blessedness (Part 1) Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on May 24, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,120 views

    This message covers the first six verses of The Beatitudes. The word "blessed" in the text refers to more than just peace and happiness. It means "a divine and godlike joy." Jesus was saying, "Joyful are those who possess these inward qualities."

    I have entitled our message this morning, “Finding True Blessedness (Part 1).” The words of Jesus seen in our passage today are called “The Beatitudes,” and this does not mean “beautiful attitudes,” even though this phrase might have catchy ring. “The Beatitudes are blessed sayings.”(1) “The ...read more

     | 2,382 views

    To conclude this study of the Beatitudes, the text in Matthew 5:3-10 is used as a TEMPLATE for prayer. Praying Scripture is a powerful way to apply truths to our own lives and reinforce our understanding of the passage.

    PRAYING SCRIPTURE To complete our study of the Beatitudes, we will now use this portion of Scripture as a template for prayer. Learning to pray Scripture will strengthen your prayer life significantly. Some of you may have already learned to use the Lord’s Prayer in this way. That is the most ...read more

    Who can have a visionary view of God? Jesus answers this question for us in His Sermon on the Mount, Matthew 5:8, “God blesses those whose hearts are pure, for they will see God.”

    I’m sure you will have noticed that our preaching theme this year is Visionary View. Today I want us to consider the question: Who can have a visionary view of God? Jesus answers this question for us in His Sermon on the Mount, Matthew 5:8, “God blesses those whose hearts are pure, for they will ...read more

    Beatitudes Of Psalm 84

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Jun 12, 2023
     | 3,609 views

    This exposition of Psalm 84 examines the psalmist's passion for the presence of God, the strength that God supplies to those who rely on him, and the abundant provision for those who serve him with consecration and sincerity.

    Intro This message will illustrate the harmony of Jesus’s Beatitudes with other beatitudes in Scripture. While expounding Psalm 84, we will identify consistencies in the beatitudes declared by the psalmist with some of the beatitudes pronounced by Jesus in Matthew 5. Three beatitudes are announced ...read more

    "To be poor in spirit" refers to one feeling spiritually broken due to life's challenges and difficulties. They have a genuine heart for God. This study will explore the characteristics of a person broken before God, which the Bible calls the "poor in spirit."

    SCRIPTURAL REFERENCES (Psalms 113:7-8) (7) "He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth the needy out of the dunghill;" (8) "That he may set him with princes, even with the princes of his ...read more

    Revival And The Beatitudes Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Jul 10, 2023
     | 3,124 views

    This message defines revival, then demonstrates from Scripture how the qualities in the Beatitudes posture believers for revival. Understanding the Beatiudes helps us understand how to position ourselves for revival. God can only trust these kind of people with revival.

    Intro What the world needs now is revival. In times of revival the effectiveness of the church skyrockets. The wind of the Spirit lifts the believers to greater heights of service, the world is evangelized, and the moral climate of society is changed. The question asked of God in Psalm 85:6 is: ...read more

    A study of the Beatitudes. Jesus begins His sermon on the mount answering the question: "What will it take to make you happy?" His answer, however, is far different from the way most people will answer. In fact, his answers appear to bring sorrow, not happiness.

    PURSUIT OF HAPPYNESS: A BROKEN HEART A. Many people believe that HAPPINESS is produced by EXTERNAL CIRCUMSTANCES or SITUATIONS. 1. The world buys into the “WHEN AND THEN” philosophy: “When I get this...” or “When that changes...” or “When this happens” “. . . THEN I'll be ...read more

    Being Salt Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Jul 31, 2023
     | 2,632 views

    Immediately following the Beatitudes, Jesus turned the instruction from character qualities of his followers to their function in the world as salt and light. Matthew 5:13 warns about failing to function as salt.

    Intro We have found in our study of the Beatitudes that a certain kind of person is blessed (approved and favored by God). This follower of Christ has the same characteristics developed in him that we see in Christ. He is poor in spirit, mournful of anything that does not glorify God, meek, etc. It ...read more
