6 Luke 6:20-26 Blessings… "Blessed are you who are poor, for the kingdom of God is yours. Blessed are you who are now hungry, for you will be satisfied. Blessed are you who are now weeping, for you will laugh. Blessed are you when people hate you, and when they exclude and insult you, and denounce your name as evil on account of the Son of Man. Rejoice and leap for joy on that day! Behold, your reward will be great in heaven. For their ancestors treated the prophets in the same way.

7 …and Woes But woe to you who are rich, for you have received your consolation. But woe to you who are filled now, for you will be hungry. Woe to you who laugh now, for you will grieve and weep. Woe to you when all men shall speak well of you, for their ancestors treated the false prophets in this way."

8 Os pobres de espirito Lukas disse, Felizes sao os pobres de espirito E uma classe dos pobres, as pobres que trabalhar Out of their poverty they responded to God The term had developed during the prophetic period as Israel had urbanised, and the society polarised between the oppressive rich and the oppressed poor. No so pessoas ricas que tem probreza do espirito Meu casa em Tatalon, Manila

9 The opposite of poverty of spirit is the spirit of the rich. The rich are always right. They are independent of others and of God. They have a sense of power and control. The poor in spirit have an internal poverty, They are people who depend on God, recognising their spiritual need, their lack of spirituality, their frailty.

10 Is poverty blessed? No, the poor are blessed – those poor who respond to God The Conundrum (Luke 6) Poverty is a curse The poor are blessed The poor are blessed Riches are a blessing But the rich are cursed But the rich are cursed

11 The beatitudes are an expansion of the blessings on the godly poor.

12 Felizes os que choram … God weeps, God sits where men and women sit, where people hurt. He dwelt (e.g. Tumbakan). The dying disciple wears sackcloth in their heart for the sins of his/her people. They cry over the slave trade in Manila, over the putrid stench of the alcoholic in their arms over the pain of the childless orphans of Rwanda. They pour out their soul for the hungry (Isa 58:10). Wailing- Bernard Hinds

13 Abencoados sao os humildes… Humildade morre para o poder e escolhe a falta de poder. Nao se pode rebaixar os humildes pois eles escolheram estar em baixo. A dureza do interior e amaciada pela gentil compaixao e o espirito gentil em relacionamentos. Como borracha por fora e aço por dentro Mulheres assim sao lindas deante de Deus (1 Pe 3:4). (como buscando agua) Humildade - M (Feuerteufel) by Karin Kuhlmann (Germany)

14 …eles herdarão a terra. A pessoa humilde nao precisa lutar pelos seus prorios direitos Eles escolheram nao ter direitos. Essas pessoas sem poder sao as que sao realmente poderosas. Este e o carater central do missionario de sucesso. O humilde pode cruzar qualquer barreira. Eles herdarao a terra. Com uma pequena obediencia como entrar numa favela, vem ccentenas de trabalhos – essa e a nossa heranca, 1000s – se escolhermos o caminho mais baixo.

15 Abencoados aqueles que tem fome e sede de justica Humildade e fraqueza sem o desejo pela verdade de Deus. Esta fome nao e uma fome por sabedoria, mas por sabedoria em acao – um compromisso a acao por justica. Justica nao e somente vertical E tanto morrer para a auto-justica en confiar na justica de Deus. E uma fome por santidade. e.g. land rights consultation

16 Blessed are the merciful Mercy balances the drive for righteousness It is death to cruelty, the harsh word, the rigid hardness that blames others, demands from others A tenderness that easily forgets and forbears, daily choosing to forgive (Eph 4:32) It walks softly among the bruised souls of mankind (Prov 15:1; Isa 42:3).

17 Blessed are the pure in heart The heart is the inner shrine, the temple of God The pure heart is fixed on God alone, undivided By desires to please self By courting the approval of others By the cares of owning and buying and selling By the delight in a wife, husband, family By pride of position These do not steal away that pure devotion to him (1 John 2:15,16)

18 Blessed are the peacemakers The cross is a cross of pro-active reconciliation Peacemakers are able to speak the truth in love They are not peaceful people watching television They enter into conflict when it solves the sins that destroy people and communities. (e.g. Raineer) or

19 Blessed are the persecuted We are hated Friends are irritated by our goodness Families hate those who choose poverty and powerlessness, it goes against their goals for success Communities hate us: A pure love for Jesus is deeply offensive to those who love self and darkness (e.g. CIA or Marxist) Politicians seek to destroy those who would destroy their oppressions Yet we always rejoice and overcome the hatred of our closest friends and families with love (II Cor 6:10)

20 And the promises From righteous poverty to …. The Kingdom of heaven From pain to comfort From meek response to opression to inheriting the earth From oppression and injustice, they will be filled with righteousness, see the transformation of the nations From cruel slavery, they will find mercy, forgiveness They will see God, the centre of the Kingdom They will be adopted as sons and daughters Persecuted but theirs is the Kingdom of heaven
