Matthew 5 – The Beatitudes starts with the characteristics of people who need God and desire righteousness (They mourn, hunger, are meek, and are poor in Spirit. It ends with people who possess righteousness (people of mercy, peace, and purity). These people will often face persecution for their lifestyle. It should not come as a surprise but rather as an expectation that we will face persecution as followers of Jesus Christ.
