Matthew 5:1-6
3. The joyful mourners

Jesus tells us that those who mourn are blessed. How is that true? What are we to mourn? These are questions that we bring to this seemingly paradoxical statement. But as you will see through this sermon, Jesus knew what He was talking about, and His goal is to give us joy that this world cannot give--joy that we deeply desire. In this sermon, pastor David teaches that God comforts those who mourn (1) over the sinful self, (2) over the sinful world, and God comforts those who mourn through Jesus (3), with practical applications on how this verse can be applied in our lives.
