Last week, Elder Lok shared with us what it means to be meek, righteous, merciful, and pure in heart (The Beatitudes – Matt 5:1-12). This passage in the Bible challenges us to act justly, lovingly, mercifully and to walk humbly with God, serving Him and doing good to others with a pure heart (The Exchange). In this week’s sermon, we look at the remaining four Beatitudes in the Sermon on the Mount: (1) blessed are the poor in spirit, (2) blessed are those who mourn, (3) blessed are the peacemakers, and (4) blessed are those who are persecuted. These are exhortations that we should aim for, as an expression of our faith and obedience to God and His Word.
