Three words that better help us understand what Jesus did for us on the cross.

A missions message. God had a global vision to redeem the world and we have a part to play in it.

David talks about waiting for God's time and running ahead.

David discusses why we celebrate Christmas, based on the Christmas scripture that is rarely used at Christmas!

I don't know what would happen to somebody saying to Min Aung Hlaing that "General!, if you repent and stop doing what you're doing now, and give your life to Jesus believing that He paid the price of your sins, you will be forgiven by God". But those who are reviled, falsely accused, and persecuted for the sake of Jesus and His righteousness are promised to inherit the kingdom of God. "Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven". Matthew 5: 10

Blessed are the peace makers because they have been reconciled to God in Christ and help others to be reconciled to God in Christ through the message of reconciliation so that the they too can have peace with God and others.

Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God. God graciously embraces sincere and transparent hearts as pure in spite of our innate and infected sin. The good news is that He continues to purifies the sincere and transparent hearts of those who acknowledge their need of Christ's righteousness to help them see him in spirit, enjoy him in fellowship with him, and treasure him over everything else.

The merciful will receive mercy not as a reward but as a result of receiving the righteousness of Christ out of hunger and thirst for it.

Jesus the righteous One promises that those who are hungry and thirst for his righteousness will be given his righteousness to the full extent. Please check this out to see how it happens.

The meek will inherit the land because they possess the meekness of Christ that overcomes the world.
