Sermon Scriptures: Matt 5:6-8

Like the preamble to our U.S. Constitution the Beatitudes proclaim what is, in the light of the Kingdom of Heaven, unassailably true.

Our first and primary identity is as citizens in the Kingdom of God, steeped and formed by our Kingdom identity. We should live everyday benefitting from the ideals, systems, and structures of the Kingdom of Heaven.

When Jesus’ early listeners heard his words about hungering and thirsting for righteousness, they would have understood that Jesus meant doing the right thing regardless of the circumstances, and having a disposition toward justice, no matter the cost.
