À propos de cet audio

The Sermon on the Mount opens with a paradox: the truly “blessed” are not the powerful, the wealthy, or the self-sufficient, but the poor in spirit, the grieving, the meek, and the hungry. In the Beatitudes, Jesus unveils the values of His upside-down kingdom—a kingdom for those who bring nothing and yet inherit everything. The poor in spirit are those who know they contribute nothing to God but receive His all-sufficient grace; the meek are those who surrender control and gain the earth; the hungry are those who long not for comfort or status but for God Himself. In Christ, the King embodies these inverted values—He became poor so we might become rich in Him, mourned so we might be comforted, and was crushed so we could be called blessed. Freed from self-reliance and the tyranny of our resources, we live as citizens of this new kingdom, hungering for righteousness and finding our satisfaction in the King who satisfies every lack.
