The Book Of Matthew Ch 5 Lessons

In chapter 5 Yahushua teaches not just His disciples but His followers saying the Beatitudes.

As you read them here take note of which ones apply to your own life.

Matthew 5:3-12

[3]“Blessed are the poor in spirit, 

    for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

[4]Blessed are those who mourn, 

    for they will be comforted.

[5]Blessed are the meek, 

    for they will inherit the earth.

[6]Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, 

    for they will be filled.

[7]Blessed are the merciful, 

    for they will be shown mercy.

[8]Blessed are the pure in heart, 

    for they will see Yahuah.

[9]Blessed are the peacemakers, 

    for they will be called children of  Yahuah.

[10]Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, 

    for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

[11]“Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me.

[12]Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

The one that stands out to me the most is verse 11. I am homeless at the same time while on this spiritual journey that makes it's even more true. 

I have been through numerous amounts of persecution because I'm homeless and when I say I'm on a spiritual journey it goes over people's heads and rumors spread.

 Also I refuse to use the name JC as my Messiah because He was a Hebrew man of which Hebrew names have specific meanings you can not translate in to other languages.

 JC is a Greek name. But people refuse the truth. At the same time the next verse says for us to rejoice because in the same way the Prophets were also persecuted. 

Now I've spoken openly about the corruption of the Bible primarily because it was translated and not in it's original form. So as I always say things can be twisted and names can be changed which Father allows to test His people. 

I don't do deep study work on the scriptures but I am led by the Holy Spirit to the correct discernment of the name of the name ABOVE ALL NAMES YAHUSHUA. 

Regardless of my personal beliefs I will not judge those who use JC as the Messiah's name because it's their fruit that matters to me the most not what name they use. However I will make it clear to those who try to convince me otherwise of His name and tell me that JC loves me. My response remains that I call My Messiah Yahushua because He was a Hebrew man not Greek.

The deception is there just like when Satan tried to twist scripture to benefit himself when he was testing Yahushua in the wilderness and told Him to jump off and the angels will catch Him making sure He won't stub a toe...

This is how scripture is taken out of context and twisted. 

Yahushua continues His teaching by telling His followers to be the Light 🕯️ in the world and that the light should be on a lamp stand to shine bright and give light to the entire room. 

Matthew 5:13-16

[13]“You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot.

[14]“You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden.

[15]Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house.

[16]In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.

Yahushua talks about how He was not sent to abolish the Law or Prophets but to fulfill them.

He encouraged His followers to follow the commands. 

I believe righteousness is doing what is right without a need for a pat on the back from man. But always striving to do the Will of Abba Yahuah Daily. 

Matthew 5:19-20

[19]Therefore anyone who sets aside one of the least of these commands and teaches others accordingly will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever practices and teaches these commands will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

[20]For I tell you that unless your righteousness surpasses that of the Pharisees and the teachers of the law, you will certainly not enter the kingdom of heaven.

Yahushua explains the commands we ought to follow and the very last verse speaks about loving your enemy. This one I've personally found hard to do in my own life but it's a work in progress.
