Summary

In this enlightening episode, Dr. Steven Lawson embarks on a profound journey through the Beatitudes, with a special focus on the role of peacemakers in the Kingdom of Heaven. Dr. Lawson skillfully unpacks the transformative power of embracing and spreading peace, both within our own lives and in the broader community. He elucidates the biblical perspective that peacemakers are not merely passive but actively engage in reconciling conflicts, promoting peace based on truth and righteousness, and embodying the characteristics of the Kingdom of God. Through his verse-by-verse teaching, Dr. Lawson challenges listeners to reflect on their own roles as peacemakers, encouraging us to extend the peace of God to others and to seek reconciliation in a world often marked by strife. Join Dr. Lawson for a compelling discussion that not only deepens our understanding of the Scriptures but also inspires us to live out the profound and peace-filled teachings of Jesus Christ.

0:00.0	Welcome to the Bible Study. I'm Stephen Lawson, president of One Passion Ministries.
0:07.0	And each week I will teach verse by verse through the passage of scripture so that you can better understand the word of God
0:14.2	and put it into practice in your life. Join me now as we look together into this
0:18.9	section of the Bible. All right we got a great study in store as always and just to do a little
0:29.1	housekeeping. We're going to be here next week and we should wrap up the beatitudes next week.
0:36.4	We're going to keep going in the sermon on the mount.
0:40.1	But this is the most extraordinary beginning to any sermon that's ever been preached with these

0:53.4	I think we've been here like seven, the last eight,
0:56.0	or eight of the last nine.
0:57.4	Maybe it's eight of the last nine consecutively.
1:00.4	So I just want to get in as much of this as we possibly can. I need it. I know you need it. We all need it.
1:09.0	So I get more out of this than anyone else, just having to brood over these verses and
1:15.2	have it process and cycle through my own life and my own heart.
1:20.8	And I hope that you will give deep thought to these truths that we're looking at.
1:27.0	So it's all good.
1:30.0	So let's just hop right in.
1:32.0	Let me start in a word of prayer. If you're visiting here today,
1:35.6	let me just say that this is not a part of my prayer.
1:38.6	If you're visiting welcome, it's open table so whoever wants to come and be apart can be apart.
