God is concerned with the condition of our heart. We are to seek purity of heart in two ways: (1) be right, and (2) be true. Our words and deeds must be in sync with our heart.

Noticed Jesus did not say “Blessed are the pure…” which is correct too. • But He said, “Blessed are the pure IN HEART.” The emphasis is right. • Man concerns the outward – we want to look good, to make an impression. • We need to place more emphasis on what is unseen – the attitudes of our ...read more

Who Are You? When I was your age, there was a song that was made popular by The Who. And I would guess that most of you know that song, even though you hadn’t been born at that time. You know it because it’s the theme song of CSI, "Who Are You?" And that’s a question I want to ask you, "Who ...read more

Be A Peacemaker Series

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Nov 10, 2007

based on 4 ratings

| 8,135 views

To make peace is not to compromise or avoid confrontation. Abraham set us a good example. We must have the desire to make peace, treasure the relationship, be generous in heart and avoid a self-centred view of things.

JOHN PIPER says the cry of the beatitudes is this: “Get a new heart!” • They are not good suggestions, but what every Christian ought to be. • The beatitudes counter the false understanding that a person can be saved without being changed. Or: that a person can inherit eternal life even if his ...read more
