Counter-Cultural “Blessed are the poor in spirit”
September 18, 2022 / Jared Douglas“Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” Matthew 5:3
“Poor in Spirit” does not mean:
- Financial Poverty
- Poor Self-Worth
- False Humility
Poor (Ptochos) means to be totally and completely desperate, helpless and powerless
When we come to understand how poor we are in spirit;
we then realize how rich we really are in faith because of Him!!!
