Verses (St.Matthew’s gospel 5 : 1-11): Multitudes of people from Galilee, Jerusalem, Judaee and from places beyond Jordan etc, came to see Jesus and to listen to His preaching .
One day He made His famous speech on the mountain, as follows:
1. Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
2. Blessed are they that mourn, for they shall be comforted.
3. Blessed are the meek (gentle) – for they shall inherit the earth
4. Blessed are they who thirst for righteousness and hunger, for they shall be filled.
5. The merciful people obtain their mercy.
6. The people who are pure in heart, they shall see in God.
7. The peace makers on this earth are called as children of God.
8. The people who are persecuted for righteousness sake – they enter the kingdom of heaven.
9. When men revile you and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake, you will be blessed.
Jesus also said that rejoice yourself, your reward in heaven is so great. You are the salt of the earth that means as devotees of God – you are blessed and saved.
Jesus is our savior and have faith in Him.
