Take your Bible if you will, and let’s look at Matthew chapter 5 together, Matthew chapter 5. Sometimes I think the shorter the verse is the more I can think of to say. And usually that’s because when you only deal with one verse, you deal with it as one verse because it is so full of meaning.
It is so pregnant with truth, and we’re going to find as we go through the Beatitudes, and we’ll go one Beatitude at a time, that even though they’re one simple statement and only one verse, we have to take them one at a time because they’re so loaded with tremendous truth.
And so tonight, we’re going to be looking at verse 3, the beginning of the Beatitudes, the introduction to the Sermon on the Mount. Verse 1 says, “And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was seated, his disciples came unto him: And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying, ‘Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.’”
