“The Second Half of the Beatitudes”
Pastor Joey Anjiki

1. “Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.”
* Boundaries transcended by Jesus Christ
* Where did Jesus Christ learn these kinds of values from?
2. “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.”
* The errors of Pharisaic Judaism
* To see God and experience the Holy Spirit
* American pastor, David Wilkerson
3. “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.
* This is teaching on the peace between God and man
* 2 Corinthians 5:18 & 20 “18 All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation… 20 We are therefore Christ’s ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ’s behalf: Be reconciled to God.” (NIV)
* The testimony of an Ethiopian woman
4. “Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.”
* The story of the twenty-six martyrs of Nagasaki

Thoughts to share at mini church:
1. Review the content of each teaching.
2. What kind of grace did Jesus portray?
3. It says “see God” in verse 8. Have you ever experienced the Holy Spirit?
4. What kind of people are those who make peace?
5. What did you sense from the incident of the twenty-six martyrs of Nagasaki?
