The Beatitudes Explained Simply (a sermon on the beatitudes)

In the beatitudes Jesus tells us how life really works. We often think the good life, the blessed life, if found in all these other things. But Jesus shows us a different way, a better way to live.
In this message we are going to take a closer look at this passage. And I think when we look at the beatitudes explained simply our lives and faith will be transformed. Let's jump in.

I have listened to so many sermons on the beattitudes to help me teach it to my adult son. He is on the autism spectrum. Your sermon was absolutely perfect. Simplistic and visual. Thank you Pastor Poor. I pray that your church grows and that you continue to listen to the Lord as you bless do many people. God bless you and your family 😇

I am trying learn if the blesseds are more like a state as it says “are”or if they are orders/rules of Jesus akin to commands. I am leaning toward the fact the blesseds are a state of happiness more like a fruit of the spirit vs a commandment. So what is the difference between happiness and a fruit is the spirit? Thus it would lead me to believe these beatitudes would not be like something we can follow or a command if we loved him. Rather it is the other commands we are to follow that lead us to experiencing happiness just like the other commands may lead us to the fruit of the spirit of the spirit leads us there. Blessed be your autistic son. Does he exhibited one of the fruit of the spirit and or beautitude?

Glory to Father! Jesus-Christ! Holy Spirit! Hello with Love! Shalom! Brother Jeffery. Your presentation and understanding of the Beatitudes is EDYFYING. I really enjoyed your honesty to those who will have to give an account of their choice. Follow Jesus or the world. You are bless brother Jeffery. May the Spirit of the Lord guide you in your journey to continue preaching the Gospel of Christ-Jesus. We all need to be honest with ourselves, I know from my own experience with Jesus, it is not easy and far from it, to have or to be. if wisdom cannot teach you, the sufferance will take care of it. Thank you Jesus. Praise the Lord! Glory to God! God bless you and your family. Amen.
