Introduction

Matthew 5:1-12
Topics: Spiritual Growth Getting To Know Him
It is through the understanding of the working of the Word and Spirit that the SOM cannot be turned into a social gospel of sorts that many are attempting to convert it to.

The Gospel in its full reality will always be a spiritual Gospel. Unless we become partakers of the divine nature we will die in our sins. [ read more... ]

Tears have a way of cleansing us. Just as Naaman dipped in the Jordan and was cleansed of his leprosy, there are tears of repentance that can lead to a great cleansing of our spirit. Jesus said that the mourners will be comforted. They will be comforted with an abiding joy that understands clearly that in the end, all matters will be settled by God. This mourning will bring about an undeniable sense of holiness, because it moves us into the presence of the Lord. The real mourning will strengthen a man for strong work in the Kingdom and help him to sustain a great commitment to the spiritual calling he has been called to do. [ read more... ]

Blessed Are The Humble

Matthew 5:5-5
Topics: Encouragement Spiritual Growth
The word “meek” means to be humble, gentle, patient, or with a spirit of humility. One way to gain some insight into what this trait that Jesus was saying would be blessed is to see the absolute opposite of meekness. Its opposite is pride, stubbornness, fierceness, vengefulness, self-will toward God and ill-will toward men. The actions of this man would be seen as submissive to the will of God in such a way that reflects a graciousness about the way he conducts himself. A meek man is one who refuses to retaliate, is not mired in selfishness, does not emphasize his rights or rightful position and will not exalt himself. [ read more... ]
