"FOUR" Part 2 | Tullian Tchividjian

Here is Part 2 from Tullian's new series “FOUR.”

Today, Tullian looks at Matthew 5:3-12 and shows how we typically treat the Beatitudes as if they are all about us and the kinds of people we better become if we want to be blessed by God. But to read them that way is to massively misread them.

What the Beatitudes actually teach is that it’s the people who know they’re impure who get God’s grace, not the people who think they’re pure. It’s those who acknowledge their unrighteousness who get God’s righteousness.

What keeps us from knowing God is not the badness we know we have but the goodness we think we have.
