About this sermon
Pastor Colin Smith preached this sermon "Blessed Are Those Who Are Persecuted" on the Beatitudes at The Orchard EFC in suburban Chicago in 2013. "Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are you when others revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you." (Matthew 5:10–12 ESV) If you like the series, you'll enjoy the book the series inspired: Momentum: Pursuing God’s Blessings through the Beatitudes from Moody Publishers. Sermon Series Description: The Beatitudes are not telling you how to become a Christian—they tell you what a true Christian looks like. Everyone wants to be blessed. We want to be blessed in life, blessed in death, and blessed in eternity. In the Beatitudes, the Son of God tells us about the life that is blessed and about the people who are blessed. But Jesus does more than just describe a blessed life—He gives us a way to actually pursue it. Open the Bible is the teaching ministry of Pastor Colin Smith.
