Comments on: The Beatitudes, mostly, are things we do, rather than things we are. There’s hope in that! https://anitamathias.com/2013/10/01/beatitudes-objective-statements-reality-whether-believe/ Anita Mathias's Blog on Faith and Art Mon, 05 Jan 2015 11:02:15 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=7.0 By: Anita Mathias https://anitamathias.com/2013/10/01/beatitudes-objective-statements-reality-whether-believe/#comment-23447 Wed, 02 Oct 2013 21:34:33 +0000 http://anitamathias.com/?p=48403#comment-23447 In reply to Mollie Lyon.

“The whole Sermon on the Mount grows in significance each time I read it.”
Me too. And it is the wisest and happiest way to live–and what’s more, it’s true, though everything in our world shouts otherwise!

I have felt only studying them for an extended period of time is something I should do. The whole Sermon on the Mount grows in significance each time I read it. Our pastor has started a series on the Man, Christ- The Man nobody knows. Christ’s longest sermon recorded should be the heart of what we study as His followers. And it is a choice to live this way, because in our nature, it is not comfortable.
