2009 - The Year of the Bible

July 5, 2009 - "Thinking about the Beatitudes"

Dr. Gene George, Guest Speaker

 
The meek shall obtain fresh joy in the Lord,
   and the neediest people shall exult in the Holy One of Israel.
All these things my hand has made,
   and so all these things are mine, says the Lord.
But this is the one to whom I will look,
   to the humble and contrite in spirit,
   who trembles at my word.
 

Isaiah 29:19; 66:2

When Jesus saw the crowds, he went up the mountain; and after he sat down, his disciples came to him. Then he began to speak, and taught them, saying:

 ‘Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

 ‘Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.

 ‘Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.

 ‘Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.

 ‘Blessed are the merciful, for they will receive mercy.

 ‘Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.

 ‘Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.

 ‘Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

 ‘Blessed are you when people revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

 

Matthew 5:1-12
