https://tipofthespear.ticketspice.com/livestream-awakening-the-church Join us as we dive into the Sermon on the Mount and unpack the Beatitudes one by one. Far from being a "works-based salvation," the Beatitudes reveal how believers can cultivate virtues that not only bring blessing in this life but also eternal rewards in the Messianic Kingdom. In this study we'll explore: - What it means to be "poor in spirit" and why it's foundational. - Mourning over sin with the heart of God. - The strength of meekness under God's control. - Hungering and thirsting for righteousness in a culture that celebrates sin. - Extending mercy and receiving mercy—both now and at the judgment seat of Christ. - Living with purity of heart and seeing God in deeper intimacy. - True peacemaking based on truth, not compromise. - The blessing of persecution and the eternal crown of life. Discover how Jesus' words speak directly to our times, exposing cultural lies and pointing us toward the joy, comfort, and inheritance promised to His faithful disciples. 📖 Scripture Focus: Matthew 5:1–12 ✝️ Theme: Rewards in the Messianic Kingdom
