Good day to those reading this❤️ i would like to share something i learned from a youtube channel called Bible project which is a channel i reccomend and enjoy watching. The beautitudes, Jesus said this to the poor and opressed during the sermon on the mount, the sermon Jesus preached. He claimed that the Kingdom of God starts with these people. A new reality where live is the final world but He said Heaven was coming to earth now. One day there will be no more sorrow and those who grieve will be comforted, the unimportant will be important. Those who hunger and thrist for righteousness will be satisfied, those who are merciful will be shown mercy. A group of people who are poor and humble will inherit the world though generosity, and forgiveness, and justice. A Jesus style revelation the pure in heart will see God, but Jesus knows our decisions and often drived by mixed motives, for Jesus, real peace is only possible with people who know they need to be transformed, if theyre turly going to love God and others. A radical calling, blessed are the peacemakers, God’s new reality needs people who go out of their way into the conflict of others. Urging and creating a way towards peace. But that way of life can be dangerous, so Jesus says blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness for theirs is the Kingdom of the skies. So rejoice and be glad just like how they persecuted the prophets before you, the prophets who foretold that there will be a time where Jesus the messiah will come and start proclaiming the Kingdom of God. Satrting with a small group of Israelites, Jesus saying you are the salt of the land,salt is used to preserve food for a long time and in the Bible is used to present God's long lasting covenant with israel, saying that the group of people are the light of the world and to let that light shine, a City on a hill cannot be hidden, the group of people are God's salt, and City, and light, thats going to display God's Kingdom to all the world. And remember, Jesus loves you, and God bless.❤️🙏❤️🩹🕊
Matthew 5:3-12 NASB2020
[3] “ Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. [4] “Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. [5] “Blessed are the gentle, for they will inherit the earth. [6] “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be satisfied. [7] “Blessed are the merciful, for they will receive mercy. [8] “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God. [9] “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God. [10] “Blessed are those who have been persecuted for the sake of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. [11] “Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me. [12] Rejoice and be glad, for your reward in heaven is great; for in this same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden; nor does anyone light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on the lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works and glorify your Father who is in heaven.
