"Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy." Matthew 5:7
"Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God." Matthew 5:9
Forgiveness is not forgetting. Forgiveness is not ignoring the hurt caused. Forgiveness is releasing the debt owed because of the offense. This is exactly what God has done for us in Christ Jesus. Step 6 of Celebrate Recovery says, "Evaluate all my relationships. Offer forgiveness to those
who have hurt me and make amends for harm I’ve done to others except
when to do so would harm them or others." Scary huh? But I long for mercy, so because of Christ I can give mercy. I long for peace, and so through Christ I make peace. You can do this to through Christ.

Matthew 5:8 "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.
"Blessed are the pure in heart" doesn't just happen. It's to completed work of a slaughtered Savior, a relentless Spirit, and a loving Father. So if we are to see God, how do we get a pure heart? Believe the Gospel and all things lead back to it's truth.

Blessed are those who weep, for they shall be comforted.
Matthew 5:4
What if? What if there really is a God? What if that God revealed himself to mankind? What if mankind was supposed to reflect the character of that God and didn't? What if?
If we earnestly believe that God exists, that we matter to him, and that he has the power to help us recover from our brokenness, then we can be well on our way towards healing. Do you believe that God is?

Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the Kingdom of God. Matthew 5:3
I'm an addict. I'm addicted to sin. And so are you. The Bible calls this our sin nature. That there are areas of our life that we simply are ashamed of, don't like, and wish no one would ever know about us reveals this truth about ourselves. It is to this point that Jesus says we are "blessed" if we are "poor in spirit". We realize we are not God and are spiritual bankrupted before him. It is only at this starting point that we can find genuine recovery.
This is the first sermon in a series walking through the Beatitudes and the 8 principles of recovery based upon them of Celebrate Recovery. Delivered by pastor Chris Kopp, Sunday February 28th, 2016 to the Galena Bible Church.

March 1:14-15 Now after John was arrested, Jesus came into Galilee, proclaiming the gospel of God, (15) and saying, "The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel.""Repentance" is often a term referred to as being only for "Hell fire" preaching term. Yet it was the core of what Jesus first message was, "Repent and believe the gospel." Only when we see our sin as sinful will the gospel actually be good new.

Genesis 2:24-25 Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh. (25) And the man and his wife were both naked and were not ashamed.The purpose and meaning of marriage in modern culture had been muddled and confused. How did marriage start? Was there a design? What about sex? These questions and more are ones we seek answers to as we look at sanctity of marriage.Sermon delivered to the Galena Bible Church, Sunday January 17th, 2015 by pastor Chris Kopp.
