WORDS OF THE MASTER
JESUS said it…and that’s all we need
to know.
Matthew 5:1-16
1 And seeing the
multitudes, He went up on a mountain, and when He was seated His disciples came
to Him. 2 Then He opened His
mouth and taught them, saying: 3 “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of
heaven. 4 Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.
5 Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.
6 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for
righteousness, for they shall be filled. 7 Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy.
8 Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God. 9 Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of
God. 10 Blessed are those who are persecuted for
righteousness’ sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 11 Blessed are you when
they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely
for My sake.
12 Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets
who were before you. 13 You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt loses its
flavor, how shall it be seasoned? It is then good for nothing but to be thrown
out and trampled underfoot by men. 14 “You are the light of
the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on
a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. 16 Let your light so
shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in
heaven.”
Now, let’s just DO it! Amen.
Amen. Amen.
