Happy are the Mourners-Matthew 5:4

The sage wisdom of Spurgeon came forth by stating, "The more God makes you holy the more unholy you will judge yourself to be. No man groans so deeply, 'O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death?' as the man who is nearest to complete deliverance from all evil. The last relics of sin are more horrible to the godly man than the full empire of sin to the newly awakened." God blesses those who not only recognize their spiritual bankruptcy in Gospel humility, but also those who mourn over that sin and repent of it. This second beatitude speaks of how the believer hates his sin. Join us for our study this Sunday, "Happy are the Mourners." (Matthew 5:4)
