Persistent Resistance
•
John Hebenton
We continue our journey into the sermon on the Mount, holding the beatitudes as our map and key. We listen as Jesus continues to reinterpret the law for the new time he lives in, applying the law to new circumstances and requirements. He does do in ways that invite people to be subversive and persistent in the joining God to bring to perfection/completions all God desires – the empire of heaven.
In what ways are we persistent in living the Beatitudes?
Who inspires us with their persistence?
