Sermon Notes
Date: 05/24/2026
Preacher: Monty Simao, pastor
Study: Matthew
Key Text: Matthew 5:1-12
Description:
What kind of person
is blessed?
Jesus answered that very question
from the mount.
And His answer—
as it did then—
still turns the world upside down.
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast,
Pastor Monty Simao continues our study
in the Gospel of Matthew—
as Jesus sits down
and begins to teach
the citizens of His kingdom.
And what He says
is not what the world expects:
Blessed are the poor in spirit.
Blessed are those who mourn.
Blessed are the gentle.
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst
for righteousness.
Blessed are the merciful.
Blessed are the pure in heart.
Blessed are the peacemakers.
Blessed are those who have been persecuted
for the sake of righteousness.
This is not worldly strength.
This is kingdom character.
Grace-wrought.
Christ-shaped.
And blessed
by the King Himself.
