Matthew 5

Matthew 5

What does it mean to "WIN" in life? Jesus started his famous sermon with a series of affirmations on the kind of people he declares "blessed".  Pastor JD explores the idea of being "Poor in Spirit". Was this for a limited group of destitute people, or being poor in spirit a state of existence we are all eligible for? We hope this message blesses you and helps you live better.

[Matt 5:3-12] Jesus' sermon on the Mount is the single greatest exposition of the Christian life. The Beatitudes are eight characteristics of being a true disciple of Jesus. Hope is not just a noun but a verb, we must exercise that hope in God's promises. We must feed and water our Christian hope for it to grow strong and bear fruit. The poor in spirit live in fear of God, esteem His name, and keep His holy word.

The post Poor in Spirit, Tuned to Source appeared first on Common Thread Church.

The wealthy Mrs. Davidson has enlisted the help of the Junior Detective team to search for her missing pet turtle. As they uncover clues and work together, they learn valuable lessons about humility and what it means to be “poor in spirit".

In this bible study, we cover Matthew 5.1-12 looking at the Beatitudes. The Beatitudes are a list of 8 statements from Jesus, each with a promise. “Blessed” - happy, joyful, on the right path- is the person who follows each of Jesus' calls. This includes a call to be poor in spirit, to mourn our sinful state, to be meek, to thirst for righteousness, to show mercy, to be pure of heart, to be a peacemaker, and to rejoice in persecution.The Beatitudes are a progressive ladder, with each separate step being critical to understand before attempting the next step. Some of the steps are easier for some than others, and that's ok, but we need to take these one at a time, and do our best to follow Jesus' call. Keeping in mind that on our own, without the help of the Holy Spirit, we are not capable of any of them.

 Blessed Are the Poor In SpiritAs we follow Jesus, we see the world in a different light.

In this sermon, Pastor Chad explores the concept of true happiness as taught by Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount. Highlighting the Beatitudes from Matthew 5, the message challenges the world's view of happiness, which often depends on external circumstances, and presents a deeper joy rooted in spiritual humility. True happiness, as Jesus teaches, comes from acknowledging our need for God and relying on His grace, rather than on self-sufficiency or material success.This message encourages us to rethink what it means to be happy, inviting us to surrender pride and trust in God's transformative love. By embracing humility and dependence on God, we can experience the fulfillment and peace that Jesus offers, regardless of life's challenges.

Jesus begins the 'Sermon on the Mount' by saying, "Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven." To encourage the listener in the truth of God's rich grace, this episode examines this interesting statement and answers these questions: 1) What does it mean to be 'poor in spirit'? 2) How and why is a person 'blessed' who is poor in spirit? 3) How does a person become poor in spirit?

Jesus begins the Sermon on the Mount by telling his disciples that those who are poor in spirit are blessed. What does it mean to be poor in spirit? What even does it mean to be blessed? Jesus then goes on to tell them that for those folks, "theirs is the kingdom of Heaven." Okay, but what does that mean. Keith Pond explains what the Beatitudes are and how this opening Beatitude is significant for believers today.

This conversation is based on the sermon titled, "The Blessed," from Matt. 5:1-12.

Jesus said that those who are “poor in spirit” are blessed. Being poor is not a blessing! So what did Jesus mean when he said this? In this episode, we will dive into scripture to see what Christ meant concerning the Kingdom of Heaven.

By Mike Phelps - We are blessed to see our poverty before God and mourn our sinful nature.
