Matthew 5:8 - 6th Beatitude
Gospel of MatthewSteve Gregg
In this discourse, Steve Gregg provides insights into the sixth Beatitude as recorded in Matthew 5:8. The verse emphasizes the purity of heart necessary to see God, and Gregg emphasizes that seeing God may not necessarily involve a literal sighting, but rather a clear vision of Him. He goes on to explain that holiness, which is often equated with purity, is the core of a person's soul that encompasses their values, affections, and thoughts, and is essential to true worship and love for God.
