Harvest with Pastor Greg Laurie | Greg Laurie - How To Be Happy (Part 2) | April 24, 2026
- ...
- 00:00:00.633 --> 00:00:00.343
- Greg laurie: see, the problem is sometimes as christians
- 00:00:04.280 --> 00:00:06.116
- We're persecuted for the wrong reasons.
- 00:00:06.249 --> 00:00:08.985
- We're persecuted because we're obnoxious, or because we're very
- 00:00:09.085 --> 00:00:14.290
- Judgmental, or we all act like a bunch of karens all the time.
- 00:00:14.391 --> 00:00:15.458
- You know what i'm talking about?
- 00:00:18.328 --> 00:00:20.163
- Always a critical word.
- 00:00:20.163 --> 00:00:21.965
- Always a lecture.
- 00:00:21.965 --> 00:00:23.533
- Always looking down on others.
- 00:00:23.533 --> 00:00:25.368
- The very opposite of what we ought to be as followers
- 00:00:25.368 --> 00:00:27.470
- Of jesus.
- 00:00:27.470 --> 00:00:29.372
- Well, let it be for righteousness' sake, because
- 00:00:29.372 --> 00:00:32.208
- You're a bright light in a dark place.
- 00:00:32.208 --> 00:00:35.311
- ♪ this is the day, ♪
- 00:00:38.214 --> 00:00:39.983
- ♪ the day when life begins. ♪
- 00:00:39.983 --> 00:00:45.522
- ♪ this is the day, ♪
- 00:00:45.522 --> 00:00:47.924
- ♪ the day when life begins. ♪♪
- 00:00:47.924 --> 00:00:54.731
- Greg: happiness, it's something we all want, but it can be so
- 00:00:58.935 --> 00:01:04.407
- Elusive and it's not unique to our day and age, by the way.
- 00:01:04.407 --> 00:01:08.178
- 2000 years ago, the greek philosopher aristotle made this
- 00:01:08.178 --> 00:01:12.348
- Statement, "happiness is the meaning and purpose in life.
- 00:01:12.348 --> 00:01:16.753
- It's the very aim and end of human existence."
- 00:01:16.753 --> 00:01:20.423
- But how can we find happiness?
- 00:01:20.423 --> 00:01:23.927
- Sometimes people say money will make you happy.
- 00:01:23.927 --> 00:01:26.529
- Well, we know that's not true, because we all know of people
- 00:01:26.529 --> 00:01:30.166
- That have a lot of money who are not happy.
- 00:01:30.166 --> 00:01:33.169
- I know a guy who lives in a home without a sink, without water,
- 00:01:33.169 --> 00:01:38.708
- Without a ceiling.
- 00:01:38.708 --> 00:01:40.143
- This guy has nothing.
- 00:01:40.143 --> 00:01:42.278
- Yet he's happy.
- 00:01:42.278 --> 00:01:43.780
- And you want to know why?
- 00:01:43.780 --> 00:01:45.615
- Because he's stupid.
- 00:01:45.615 --> 00:01:46.983
- Now, that's a joke.
- 00:01:46.983 --> 00:01:49.686
- Okay.
- 00:01:49.686 --> 00:01:51.020
- So we know where we won't find happiness but where do we
- 00:01:51.020 --> 00:01:54.124
- Find happiness?
- 00:01:54.124 --> 00:01:55.492
- You know usa today newspaper did an article on happiness, what it
- 00:01:55.492 --> 00:02:00.763
- Is and how to get it.
- 00:02:00.763 --> 00:02:02.132
- They interviewed hundreds of experts on the topic and they
- 00:02:02.132 --> 00:02:06.102
- Did this study during the holiday season.
- 00:02:06.102 --> 00:02:08.605
- So they thought people would maybe be a little more happy
- 00:02:08.605 --> 00:02:11.374
- Than normal.
- 00:02:11.374 --> 00:02:12.742
- And here's what they discovered from talking to experts on the
- 00:02:12.742 --> 00:02:16.212
- Subject of happiness.
- 00:02:16.212 --> 00:02:17.780
- Number one, they discovered that families and friends provide the
- 00:02:17.780 --> 00:02:21.818
- Best antidote to unhappiness.
- 00:02:21.818 --> 00:02:25.121
- A marriage makes most people happier and a close family
- 00:02:25.121 --> 00:02:28.691
- Inoculates many kids against despair, according to long
- 00:02:28.691 --> 00:02:33.530
- Term research.
- 00:02:33.530 --> 00:02:34.864
- They also found the happiest people all seem to have
- 00:02:34.864 --> 00:02:38.134
- Good friends.
- 00:02:38.134 --> 00:02:39.469
- So families and friends, the best antidote to unhappiness.
- 00:02:39.469 --> 00:02:44.340
- Number two, things don't make you happy.
- 00:02:44.340 --> 00:02:48.077
- University of illinois psychologist,
- 00:02:48.077 --> 00:02:50.146
- Ed diner said, quote, materialism is toxic
- 00:02:50.146 --> 00:02:54.450
- For happiness.
- 00:02:54.450 --> 00:02:55.785
- Even rich materialists aren't as happy as those who could care
- 00:02:55.785 --> 00:02:59.489
- Less about getting and spending.
- 00:02:59.489 --> 00:03:02.091
- Number three, i found this one very interesting.
- 00:03:02.091 --> 00:03:04.427
- If you wanna be happy, be grateful for what you have.
- 00:03:04.427 --> 00:03:08.965
- So gratefulness is a key component of happiness.
- 00:03:08.965 --> 00:03:12.168
- Psychologists say gratitude has a lot to do with life
- 00:03:12.168 --> 00:03:16.039
- Satisfaction, talking and writing about what they're
- 00:03:16.039 --> 00:03:19.842
- Grateful for, amplifies adults happiness.
- 00:03:19.842 --> 00:03:23.746
- They also said it's important to learn to savor even the smallest
- 00:03:23.746 --> 00:03:27.951
- Pleasures of life.
- 00:03:27.951 --> 00:03:29.586
- Here's another one i really like this.
- 00:03:29.586 --> 00:03:31.487
- "forgiven people are happy people."
- 00:03:31.487 --> 00:03:34.324
- Forgiven.
- 00:03:34.324 --> 00:03:35.692
- Excuse me, "forgiving people--" well forgiven too, but forgiving
- 00:03:35.692 --> 00:03:39.128
- People are happy people.
- 00:03:39.128 --> 00:03:40.797
- University of michigan psychologist, christopher
- 00:03:40.797 --> 00:03:44.000
- Peterson says, quote, "forgiveness is the trait most
- 00:03:44.000 --> 00:03:47.337
- Strongly linked to happiness."
- 00:03:47.337 --> 00:03:49.372
- End quote.
- 00:03:49.372 --> 00:03:50.707
- He adds, "it's the queen of all virtues and probably the hardest
- 00:03:50.707 --> 00:03:55.311
- To come by."
- 00:03:55.311 --> 00:03:56.646
- One more point, they found that scandinavians are the
- 00:03:56.646 --> 00:03:59.983
- Happiest people.
- 00:03:59.983 --> 00:04:01.317
- Do we have any scandinavians here?
- 00:04:01.317 --> 00:04:03.286
- Ok.
- 00:04:03.286 --> 00:04:04.654
- Are you happy?
- 00:04:04.654 --> 00:04:05.989
- Oh don -- there you go.
- 00:04:05.989 --> 00:04:08.658
- So if you're scandinavian, you have this wire, otherwise
- 00:04:08.658 --> 00:04:12.462
- There's these other principles.
- 00:04:12.462 --> 00:04:13.830
- But isn't it worth noting that all of these are biblical
- 00:04:13.830 --> 00:04:17.800
- Principles and premise apart from being scandinavian
- 00:04:17.800 --> 00:04:21.204
- Gratefulness, forgiving, family, friends and so forth.
- 00:04:21.204 --> 00:04:26.009
- So here before us, now in the sermon on the mount, the point
- 00:04:26.009 --> 00:04:29.178
- Of entry is what we call the beatitudes, or another way to
- 00:04:29.178 --> 00:04:33.016
- Put it attitudes that should be.
- 00:04:33.016 --> 00:04:35.652
- You could even call them the be happy attitudes, right?
- 00:04:35.652 --> 00:04:40.390
- And each word or each beatitude begins with the word blessed.
- 00:04:40.390 --> 00:04:44.560
- And as i pointed out to you before the word blessed is
- 00:04:44.560 --> 00:04:48.131
- Interchangeable with the word happy.
- 00:04:48.131 --> 00:04:50.533
- So you could just as easily say, happy are
- 00:04:50.533 --> 00:04:53.202
- The poor in spirit,
- 00:04:53.202 --> 00:04:54.537
- Happy are the meek,
- 00:04:54.537 --> 00:04:55.872
- Happy are they that hunger and thirst
- 00:04:55.872 --> 00:04:57.240
- After righteousness and
- 00:04:57.240 --> 00:04:58.574
- So forth?
- 00:04:58.574 --> 00:04:59.909
- So keep that in mind as we read them again, jesus is unlocking
- 00:04:59.909 --> 00:05:03.579
- For us the secret to happiness.
- 00:05:03.579 --> 00:05:06.649
- Matthew chapter 5, starting at verse 2, "he opened his mouth
- 00:05:06.649 --> 00:05:10.119
- And taught them," that would be the disciples, "saying," verse
- 00:05:10.119 --> 00:05:13.423
- 3, "blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the
- 00:05:13.423 --> 00:05:16.426
- Kingdom of heaven.
- 00:05:16.426 --> 00:05:17.794
- Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.
- 00:05:17.794 --> 00:05:20.830
- Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.
- 00:05:20.830 --> 00:05:23.633
- Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for
- 00:05:23.633 --> 00:05:27.403
- They shall be filled.
- 00:05:27.403 --> 00:05:28.771
- Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy.
- 00:05:28.771 --> 00:05:32.075
- Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see god.
- 00:05:32.075 --> 00:05:35.244
- Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called the sons
- 00:05:35.244 --> 00:05:39.482
- Of god."
- 00:05:39.482 --> 00:05:40.817
- We'll stop there.
- 00:05:40.817 --> 00:05:42.185
- Let's review what we already discovered together.
- 00:05:42.185 --> 00:05:44.487
- First of all, happy are the humble, happy are the humble.
- 00:05:44.487 --> 00:05:48.191
- "blessed are the poor in spirit."
- 00:05:48.191 --> 00:05:50.526
- To be poor in spirit means you see yourself as you really are,
- 00:05:50.526 --> 00:05:55.098
- Spiritually destitute.
- 00:05:55.098 --> 00:05:57.567
- A sinner in need of a savior.
- 00:05:57.567 --> 00:06:00.970
- Number two, happy people are unhappy people, if you will.
- 00:06:00.970 --> 00:06:05.808
- "blessed are they that mourn," verse 4, "for they shall
- 00:06:05.808 --> 00:06:08.678
- Be comforted."
- 00:06:08.678 --> 00:06:10.046
- Contextually, what this means is, i see my sinful condition.
- 00:06:10.046 --> 00:06:14.517
- I'm sorry for the way that i am.
- 00:06:14.517 --> 00:06:17.253
- I'm sorry for the things i've said and things that i've done,
- 00:06:17.253 --> 00:06:21.591
- And i mourn over it.
- 00:06:21.591 --> 00:06:23.059
- The bible says, "godly sorrow produces repentance."
- 00:06:23.059 --> 00:06:27.764
- And thirdly a happy person will be a meek person.
- 00:06:27.764 --> 00:06:30.633
- Verse 5, "blessed are the meek," and all that means is simply
- 00:06:30.633 --> 00:06:34.804
- Seeing myself as i am.
- 00:06:34.804 --> 00:06:36.739
- It's power under constraint.
- 00:06:36.739 --> 00:06:38.975
- Remember meekness is not weakness, power is submitting
- 00:06:38.975 --> 00:06:44.080
- Yourself to the authority of god.
- 00:06:44.080 --> 00:06:47.784
- Then we have the desire for a righteous life.
- 00:06:47.784 --> 00:06:51.053
- A happy person passionately desires a righteous life.
- 00:06:51.053 --> 00:06:54.891
- Verse 6, "blessed are those that hunger and thirst for
- 00:06:54.891 --> 00:06:58.027
- Righteousness, for they shall be filled."
- 00:06:58.027 --> 00:07:00.797
- This is speaking of spiritual hunger.
- 00:07:00.797 --> 00:07:03.032
- So, it's a hunger and thirst for righteousness, though, a hunger
- 00:07:03.032 --> 00:07:07.670
- And desire for god.
- 00:07:07.670 --> 00:07:10.106
- And so this is something we should desire.
- 00:07:10.106 --> 00:07:12.508
- And then we come to the first now of the beatitudes, we're
- 00:07:12.508 --> 00:07:15.545
- Gonna look at where we look at how, what happy people do, how
- 00:07:15.545 --> 00:07:20.817
- They behave.
- 00:07:20.817 --> 00:07:22.185
- Starting with happy people are merciful people.
- 00:07:22.185 --> 00:07:26.389
- Happy people are merciful people.
- 00:07:26.389 --> 00:07:28.825
- Look at verse 7, "blessed are the merciful."
- 00:07:28.825 --> 00:07:32.128
- What does that mean?
- 00:07:32.128 --> 00:07:33.463
- To be merciful means that i understand and empathize with
- 00:07:33.463 --> 00:07:38.401
- Those that don't know jesus yet.
- 00:07:38.401 --> 00:07:41.204
- You know, it's very easy in our polarized society today,
- 00:07:41.204 --> 00:07:45.141
- Especially as we're in an election year.
- 00:07:45.141 --> 00:07:47.844
- To see anyone that disagrees with us as our mortal enemy, but
- 00:07:47.844 --> 00:07:52.915
- We should never think of someone who holds a different view than
- 00:07:52.915 --> 00:07:56.152
- We hold, or someone who does not have our faith,
- 00:07:56.152 --> 00:08:00.022
- A non-believer, as the enemy.
- 00:08:00.022 --> 00:08:01.791
- They're not the enemy.
- 00:08:01.791 --> 00:08:03.493
- The fact of the matter is they're under the control of the
- 00:08:03.493 --> 00:08:06.429
- Enemy, and the enemy is satan.
- 00:08:06.429 --> 00:08:09.899
- And the bible says we should pray for people that are not
- 00:08:09.899 --> 00:08:13.236
- Believers yet.
- 00:08:13.236 --> 00:08:14.871
- 2 timothy 2:26, "so they'll come to their senses and escape from
- 00:08:14.871 --> 00:08:19.408
- The devil's trap.
- 00:08:19.408 --> 00:08:21.143
- For they are being held captive by him to do whatever he wants."
- 00:08:21.143 --> 00:08:24.747
- So when i'm merciful, i see behind the mask, i see behind
- 00:08:24.747 --> 00:08:29.051
- The facade and i see the person.
- 00:08:29.051 --> 00:08:32.421
- ♪♪♪
- 00:08:32.488 --> 00:08:35.858
- Greg: hey, greg laurie here, and welcome to my podcast.
- 00:08:39.996 --> 00:08:42.164
- I have a very special guest: joel rosenberg.
- 00:08:42.164 --> 00:08:46.502
- Levi, thanks for being on my podcast.
- 00:08:46.502 --> 00:08:48.237
- Michael franzese.
- 00:08:48.237 --> 00:08:49.839
- Thank you for making time for me.
- 00:08:49.839 --> 00:08:51.574
- 'cause you deal with some very weighty, heavy subjects
- 00:08:51.574 --> 00:08:54.043
- And i think when you can bring humor in
- 00:08:54.043 --> 00:08:56.245
- Is it actually helps the viewer to take in all that information.
- 00:08:56.245 --> 00:09:00.850
- Greg: is it hard to be a man of faith in what you do?
- 00:09:04.253 --> 00:09:08.491
- Mike johnson: it's not.
- 00:09:08.491 --> 00:09:09.825
- In fact, it's the only way i'm allowed and enabled
- 00:09:09.825 --> 00:09:12.295
- To do this job.
- 00:09:12.295 --> 00:09:13.663
- Jon erwin: hollywood's not the hope of the world,
- 00:09:15.665 --> 00:09:16.999
- The local church is the hope of the world,
- 00:09:16.999 --> 00:09:18.634
- And i've always felt like it's my job to set a volleyball
- 00:09:18.634 --> 00:09:21.370
- That can be spiked at the local level.
- 00:09:21.370 --> 00:09:24.173
- Greg: no one is beyond the reach of god.
- 00:09:24.173 --> 00:09:26.375
- I mean, if god can reach michael franzese,
- 00:09:26.375 --> 00:09:28.978
- Who can god not reach?
- 00:09:28.978 --> 00:09:33.683
- Greg: have you ever wondered why your
- 00:09:37.553 --> 00:09:38.888
- Prayers are not answered?
- 00:09:38.888 --> 00:09:40.323
- Listen to this: god's delays are not necessarily his denials,
- 00:09:40.323 --> 00:09:45.294
- And by that i mean there may be some behind-the-scenes stuff
- 00:09:45.294 --> 00:09:48.564
- Going on that you know nothing about in the supernatural world.
- 00:09:48.564 --> 00:09:52.368
- There's an interesting story in the book of daniel.
- 00:09:52.368 --> 00:09:54.503
- So daniel's praying for something.
- 00:09:54.503 --> 00:09:56.472
- The prayer is heard in heaven.
- 00:09:56.472 --> 00:09:58.040
- The answer is sent to daniel via an angel who doesn't
- 00:09:58.040 --> 00:10:01.410
- Quite get there on time.
- 00:10:01.410 --> 00:10:03.546
- It's revealed later to daniel that his prayer was heard,
- 00:10:03.546 --> 00:10:06.749
- And angel was sent, but for 21 days the angel from god was
- 00:10:06.749 --> 00:10:12.121
- Hindered by a fallen angel of the devil and the lord had to
- 00:10:12.121 --> 00:10:16.158
- Send a higher-ranking angel, specifically michael,
- 00:10:16.158 --> 00:10:19.328
- To overrule it and free the angel and the answer came.
- 00:10:19.328 --> 00:10:22.898
- Crazy story, amazing story, true story.
- 00:10:22.898 --> 00:10:26.068
- So when you're praying for something,
- 00:10:26.068 --> 00:10:28.137
- There might be something happening
- 00:10:28.137 --> 00:10:29.905
- In the supernatural world.
- 00:10:29.905 --> 00:10:32.008
- That's why the bible says we wrestle not against flesh and
- 00:10:32.008 --> 00:10:35.044
- Blood but against principalities and powers,
- 00:10:35.044 --> 00:10:37.980
- Against spiritual authorities in high places.
- 00:10:37.980 --> 00:10:41.417
- So listen, god is at work, god hears your prayers,
- 00:10:41.417 --> 00:10:44.987
- If your prayer isn't answered in the affirmative immediately,
- 00:10:44.987 --> 00:10:47.857
- Don't give up, keep praying.
- 00:10:47.857 --> 00:10:49.992
- As jesus said, keep seeking, keep
- 00:10:49.992 --> 00:10:52.595
- Knocking, keep asking.
- 00:10:52.595 --> 00:10:54.697
- Greg: the word that jesus uses here in matthew 6:3 for mercy,
- 00:10:58.534 --> 00:11:02.171
- Is also used concerning the word alms giving.
- 00:11:02.171 --> 00:11:05.007
- So what it means literally is helping a person in need.
- 00:11:05.007 --> 00:11:09.712
- It's very simple.
- 00:11:09.712 --> 00:11:11.080
- Mercy is seeing a man without food and giving him food.
- 00:11:11.080 --> 00:11:14.517
- Mercy is seeing someone who is lonely and giving them company.
- 00:11:14.517 --> 00:11:18.254
- Mercy is not just seeing a need, it's meeting the need, it's
- 00:11:18.254 --> 00:11:23.993
- Pity plus action.
- 00:11:23.993 --> 00:11:26.595
- It's doing something about it.
- 00:11:26.595 --> 00:11:28.030
- We can stand around all day and say, oh, i feel so sorry for
- 00:11:28.030 --> 00:11:31.333
- Those people.
- 00:11:31.333 --> 00:11:32.702
- But mercy says, i'm gonna do something for those people.
- 00:11:32.702 --> 00:11:36.806
- These people who extend mercy.
- 00:11:36.806 --> 00:11:39.108
- It's very important, but let's not misunderstand it.
- 00:11:39.108 --> 00:11:42.011
- He says, "blessed are the merciful, for they shall
- 00:11:42.011 --> 00:11:45.014
- Obtain mercy."
- 00:11:45.014 --> 00:11:46.348
- Jesus is not saying i must give mercy in order to receive mercy.
- 00:11:46.348 --> 00:11:51.721
- Because if that were the case, that would mean there's
- 00:11:51.721 --> 00:11:53.889
- Something i do to receive salvation.
- 00:11:53.889 --> 00:11:56.926
- Here's what it really means.
- 00:11:56.926 --> 00:11:58.294
- Jesus is saying, since you have been a recipient of mercy, since
- 00:11:58.294 --> 00:12:02.898
- God has extended his mercy to you, therefore, you should be a
- 00:12:02.898 --> 00:12:07.737
- Merciful person.
- 00:12:07.737 --> 00:12:10.106
- Forgiven people should be forgiving people, willing to
- 00:12:10.106 --> 00:12:14.376
- Show that same mercy to others as well.
- 00:12:14.376 --> 00:12:18.180
- Number two, a happy person will be a holy person.
- 00:12:18.180 --> 00:12:22.017
- A happy person will be a holy person.
- 00:12:22.017 --> 00:12:24.820
- Verse 8, "blessed are the pure in heart for they shall
- 00:12:24.820 --> 00:12:27.923
- See god."
- 00:12:27.923 --> 00:12:29.658
- Now this comes back to what's already happened to us, if we go
- 00:12:29.658 --> 00:12:32.261
- To the first beatitude.
- 00:12:32.261 --> 00:12:33.629
- I've seen myself as i am, a sinner.
- 00:12:33.629 --> 00:12:35.965
- I've mourned over my condition, producing a sense of meekness in
- 00:12:35.965 --> 00:12:39.802
- Me, and a hunger and thirst for spiritual things, and a desire
- 00:12:39.802 --> 00:12:43.906
- To extend mercy.
- 00:12:43.906 --> 00:12:45.875
- Now, i have this purity in heart.
- 00:12:45.875 --> 00:12:50.780
- You know, it's funny with the heart, because we use it to
- 00:12:50.780 --> 00:12:55.618
- Express our emotion.
- 00:12:55.618 --> 00:12:57.153
- We'll say something like, well, you know, my mind says one
- 00:12:57.153 --> 00:13:01.190
- Thing, but my heart says another.
- 00:13:01.190 --> 00:13:04.026
- Or if we don't think someone is compassionate enough, we'll say,
- 00:13:04.026 --> 00:13:06.962
- Hey, man, where's your heart?
- 00:13:06.962 --> 00:13:09.231
- Or of another, we might say, oh, he wears his heart on
- 00:13:09.231 --> 00:13:12.668
- His sleeve.
- 00:13:12.668 --> 00:13:14.003
- So coming back to the question of where's your heart?
- 00:13:14.003 --> 00:13:15.771
- Maybe it's on your sleeve, check it might be there.
- 00:13:15.771 --> 00:13:18.340
- Then there's countless songs about the heart.
- 00:13:18.340 --> 00:13:21.110
- Of course, stevie nicks sing along with tom petty, "stop
- 00:13:21.110 --> 00:13:25.181
- Draggin' my heart around."
- 00:13:25.181 --> 00:13:27.383
- Billy ray cyrus had an "achy breaky heart" and he also had
- 00:13:27.383 --> 00:13:32.254
- A mullet.
- 00:13:32.254 --> 00:13:34.523
- And the mullet has made a comeback.
- 00:13:34.523 --> 00:13:36.325
- Can you believe it?
- 00:13:36.325 --> 00:13:37.693
- Who would have ever thought of all hairstyles, we would see
- 00:13:37.693 --> 00:13:40.529
- Mullets again, but i'm seeing them everywhere.
- 00:13:40.529 --> 00:13:42.832
- I see a guy with one right now.
- 00:13:42.832 --> 00:13:44.233
- Okay.
- 00:13:44.233 --> 00:13:46.335
- So i had something worse than a mullet, and i wish i had a
- 00:13:46.335 --> 00:13:49.104
- Picture but i don't have one for you.
- 00:13:49.104 --> 00:13:50.973
- I had something worse than a mullet.
- 00:13:50.973 --> 00:13:52.608
- I call it a skullet.
- 00:13:52.608 --> 00:13:54.043
- Oh, there it is.
- 00:13:54.043 --> 00:13:55.678
- We have the picture.
- 00:13:55.678 --> 00:13:57.046
- Okay.
- 00:13:57.046 --> 00:13:58.380
- Now, let's analyze this for a moment.
- 00:13:58.380 --> 00:14:00.549
- This is greg in about 1992.
- 00:14:00.549 --> 00:14:02.918
- I'm losing my hair, so i'm combing it over on the top.
- 00:14:02.918 --> 00:14:07.122
- You know what a comb over is, right?
- 00:14:07.122 --> 00:14:08.624
- How many of you have comb overs?
- 00:14:08.624 --> 00:14:10.059
- Okay.
- 00:14:10.059 --> 00:14:11.393
- They'll never admit it.
- 00:14:11.393 --> 00:14:12.761
- We know what you're doing.
- 00:14:12.761 --> 00:14:14.096
- So you grow your hair really long, you comb it over, and then
- 00:14:14.096 --> 00:14:16.699
- You lay hairspray on it.
- 00:14:16.699 --> 00:14:18.767
- I had so much hairspray on my comb over, it was bulletproof.
- 00:14:18.767 --> 00:14:23.372
- But then if that wasn't enough, look at that.
- 00:14:23.372 --> 00:14:27.109
- Oh, that's brutal.
- 00:14:27.109 --> 00:14:29.545
- That's brutal.
- 00:14:29.545 --> 00:14:31.580
- So it's combed over.
- 00:14:31.580 --> 00:14:34.049
- Oh, it's just that photo needs to be burned.
- 00:14:34.049 --> 00:14:38.754
- Wow.
- 00:14:38.754 --> 00:14:40.456
- I'm so humiliated, i'm leaving.
- 00:14:40.456 --> 00:14:45.227
- Anyway, billy ray cyrus had his "achy breaky heart" and his
- 00:14:45.227 --> 00:14:50.165
- Mullet before i got sidetracked.
- 00:14:50.165 --> 00:14:52.801
- So we sing about the heart.
- 00:14:52.801 --> 00:14:54.236
- We talk about the heart and what we are saying is, well, it's our
- 00:14:54.236 --> 00:14:58.073
- Emotion, but in the bible, that's not what the heart means.
- 00:14:58.073 --> 00:15:02.344
- It doesn't mean your emotion.
- 00:15:02.344 --> 00:15:04.413
- When the bible says, "love the lord, your god with all of your
- 00:15:04.413 --> 00:15:07.216
- Mind, with all of your soul, and with all of your heart, it's
- 00:15:07.216 --> 00:15:10.152
- Talking about loving god with everything.
- 00:15:10.152 --> 00:15:13.022
- In the hebrew thinking, and as jesus is expressing it, when we
- 00:15:13.022 --> 00:15:18.060
- Talk about being pure in heart, it means your whole being is
- 00:15:18.060 --> 00:15:21.563
- Directed toward god, and it's purity.
- 00:15:21.563 --> 00:15:25.034
- But how do you have a pure heart?
- 00:15:25.034 --> 00:15:26.435
- Let's understand what it means.
- 00:15:26.435 --> 00:15:28.504
- To be pure in heart means to be single in your heart.
- 00:15:28.504 --> 00:15:32.875
- Let me explain.
- 00:15:32.875 --> 00:15:34.243
- Later in the "sermon on the mount," jesus says, "if your eye
- 00:15:34.243 --> 00:15:37.246
- Is single, your whole body will be full of light.
- 00:15:37.246 --> 00:15:39.848
- But if your eye is evil--or double visioned--your whole body
- 00:15:39.848 --> 00:15:44.253
- Will be full of darkness."
- 00:15:44.253 --> 00:15:45.821
- To be single or to be pure in heart means to have a single
- 00:15:45.821 --> 00:15:51.193
- Focus on jesus christ.
- 00:15:51.193 --> 00:15:54.964
- That clarity.
- 00:15:54.964 --> 00:15:57.199
- It's a one thing we should all want as christians.
- 00:15:57.199 --> 00:15:59.802
- David wrote, "one thing have i desired of the lord, and that
- 00:15:59.802 --> 00:16:04.139
- Will i seek after that i may dwell in the house of the lord
- 00:16:04.139 --> 00:16:07.443
- All the days of my life."
- 00:16:07.443 --> 00:16:08.811
- One thing.
- 00:16:08.811 --> 00:16:10.145
- Then paul says, this one thing i do, forgetting the things that
- 00:16:10.145 --> 00:16:13.248
- Are behind, and pressing forward to the things that are before, i
- 00:16:13.248 --> 00:16:16.986
- Press toward the mark for the prize of the upward call of god
- 00:16:16.986 --> 00:16:20.689
- In christ jesus.
- 00:16:20.689 --> 00:16:22.891
- But also a happy person will be a peacemaker.
- 00:16:22.891 --> 00:16:26.395
- Look at verse 9, "blessed are the peacemakers for they shall
- 00:16:26.395 --> 00:16:30.099
- Be called sons of god."
- 00:16:30.099 --> 00:16:32.301
- Now this is not talking really about people that march for
- 00:16:32.301 --> 00:16:36.372
- Peace, or work for peace, although that is a good thing if
- 00:16:36.372 --> 00:16:39.341
- It's done right.
- 00:16:39.341 --> 00:16:41.043
- But having said that, this verse is really talking about a person
- 00:16:41.043 --> 00:16:44.813
- Who is spreading the gospel of peace.
- 00:16:44.813 --> 00:16:47.816
- Seeking to introduce people to the prince of peace.
- 00:16:47.816 --> 00:16:51.653
- The gospel is called the "good news of peace" through jesus
- 00:16:51.653 --> 00:16:55.457
- Christ in acts 10:36.
- 00:16:55.457 --> 00:16:58.327
- In romans 10:15, it says, "how beautiful are the feet of those
- 00:16:58.327 --> 00:17:02.264
- Who preach the gospel of peace, who bring glad tidings of
- 00:17:02.264 --> 00:17:06.368
- Good things."
- 00:17:06.368 --> 00:17:07.736
- But i have to warn you when you preach the gospel of peace, some
- 00:17:07.736 --> 00:17:11.907
- People are going to revolt.
- 00:17:11.907 --> 00:17:14.043
- Sometimes people need to get mad at you before you can get them
- 00:17:14.043 --> 00:17:18.680
- Happy with you.
- 00:17:18.680 --> 00:17:20.049
- Does that make sense?
- 00:17:20.049 --> 00:17:21.650
- Jesus summed it up this way.
- 00:17:21.650 --> 00:17:23.786
- He said over in matthew 10:34, "do you think that i came to
- 00:17:23.786 --> 00:17:28.057
- Bring peace on earth?
- 00:17:28.057 --> 00:17:29.591
- I did not come to bring peace, but a sword, for a man's enemies
- 00:17:29.591 --> 00:17:34.430
- Will be those of his own household."
- 00:17:34.430 --> 00:17:37.099
- You say, now i don't understand what you're talking about.
- 00:17:37.099 --> 00:17:39.201
- Okay, here's how it works.
- 00:17:39.201 --> 00:17:41.070
- It's the unity that brings division.
- 00:17:41.070 --> 00:17:44.239
- Let's take your family, and let's say your family, you're
- 00:17:44.239 --> 00:17:49.912
- All nonbelievers.
- 00:17:49.912 --> 00:17:51.447
- And when you get together for the holidays, you drink, and you
- 00:17:51.447 --> 00:17:55.050
- Get drunk, and you tell off-color jokes and you carry on
- 00:17:55.050 --> 00:17:59.021
- Like a family.
- 00:17:59.021 --> 00:18:00.389
- And in your own dysfunctional way, you have something
- 00:18:00.389 --> 00:18:04.259
- Going there.
- 00:18:04.259 --> 00:18:05.627
- And then you go out and dare to become a christian.
- 00:18:05.627 --> 00:18:09.398
- And you show up at the family reunion.
- 00:18:09.398 --> 00:18:11.467
- Hey, everybody.
- 00:18:11.467 --> 00:18:12.801
- And now as the meal's being served, you say, do you think
- 00:18:12.801 --> 00:18:16.472
- Maybe we could do a little prayer?
- 00:18:16.472 --> 00:18:18.707
- And you even say it like that.
- 00:18:18.707 --> 00:18:20.142
- Let's pray.
- 00:18:20.142 --> 00:18:21.844
- Oh brother.
- 00:18:21.844 --> 00:18:23.912
- Yeah.
- 00:18:23.912 --> 00:18:25.247
- Go ahead.
- 00:18:25.247 --> 00:18:26.615
- You do your little prayer.
- 00:18:26.615 --> 00:18:27.950
- Everyone resents you.
- 00:18:27.950 --> 00:18:29.318
- You're ruining all their fun.
- 00:18:29.318 --> 00:18:30.652
- Why did you have to go and become a christian?
- 00:18:30.652 --> 00:18:33.088
- You think i came to bring peace?
- 00:18:33.088 --> 00:18:34.556
- I tell you rather division.
- 00:18:34.556 --> 00:18:35.891
- Everyone's mad at you now, but then one other family member
- 00:18:35.891 --> 00:18:40.596
- Comes to christ.
- 00:18:40.596 --> 00:18:41.964
- Now there's two of you.
- 00:18:41.964 --> 00:18:43.298
- Now, you're praying together for the rest of the family.
- 00:18:43.298 --> 00:18:44.933
- Now, there's three of you.
- 00:18:44.933 --> 00:18:46.268
- Now, there's four of you.
- 00:18:46.268 --> 00:18:47.636
- Now, everybody in the family has come to christ and it's a whole
- 00:18:47.636 --> 00:18:51.473
- New world, but someone had to be the first one to believe.
- 00:18:51.473 --> 00:18:55.677
- So that division ultimately brought the ultimate peace in
- 00:18:55.677 --> 00:18:59.715
- Your family.
- 00:18:59.715 --> 00:19:01.083
- Blessed are the peacemakers, jesus says, for they shall be
- 00:19:01.083 --> 00:19:04.419
- Called the sons of god.
- 00:19:04.419 --> 00:19:07.422
- If you're a christian, you are a son of god.
- 00:19:07.422 --> 00:19:11.260
- You are a daughter of god.
- 00:19:11.260 --> 00:19:13.362
- What a privilege that is.
- 00:19:13.362 --> 00:19:14.696
- No matter what you do.
- 00:19:14.696 --> 00:19:16.632
- Maybe you're a wayward son or a wayward daughter, but you're
- 00:19:16.632 --> 00:19:20.702
- Still a son and you're still a daughter.
- 00:19:20.702 --> 00:19:23.372
- "behold what manner of love the father has given to us that we
- 00:19:23.372 --> 00:19:26.808
- Should be called the children of god.
- 00:19:26.808 --> 00:19:29.211
- We're told over in 1 john.
- 00:19:29.211 --> 00:19:31.413
- Now there's one last beatitude.
- 00:19:31.413 --> 00:19:34.082
- I don't think you're gonna like this one, but it's there and
- 00:19:34.082 --> 00:19:38.053
- Fittingly, it's at the very end.
- 00:19:38.053 --> 00:19:41.390
- Number four, a happy person will be persecuted.
- 00:19:41.390 --> 00:19:45.794
- Look at verse 10, "blessed are those who are persecuted for
- 00:19:45.794 --> 00:19:49.598
- Righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
- 00:19:49.598 --> 00:19:52.568
- Blessed are you when men revile you and persecute you, and say
- 00:19:52.568 --> 00:19:56.638
- All kinds of evil against you falsely for my sake.
- 00:19:56.638 --> 00:20:00.209
- Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward
- 00:20:00.209 --> 00:20:04.179
- In heaven.
- 00:20:04.179 --> 00:20:05.514
- For so persecuted the prophets that were before you."
- 00:20:05.514 --> 00:20:09.351
- If you wanna be a happy person, you're gonna be a
- 00:20:09.351 --> 00:20:11.954
- Persecuted person.
- 00:20:11.954 --> 00:20:13.288
- Let's put it all together.
- 00:20:13.288 --> 00:20:14.656
- I see myself as i really am.
- 00:20:14.656 --> 00:20:16.325
- I'm poor in spirit.
- 00:20:16.325 --> 00:20:17.659
- I mourn over my condition.
- 00:20:17.659 --> 00:20:19.494
- Blessed are they that mourn.
- 00:20:19.494 --> 00:20:21.029
- It produces a new meekness in me and a hunger and thirst
- 00:20:21.029 --> 00:20:24.533
- For righteousness.
- 00:20:24.533 --> 00:20:25.901
- Now i'm extending mercy to others.
- 00:20:25.901 --> 00:20:28.103
- Now i'm a peacemaker talking about jesus to others.
- 00:20:28.103 --> 00:20:31.406
- People don't like that.
- 00:20:31.406 --> 00:20:33.942
- And because of that, you're going to be persecuted.
- 00:20:33.942 --> 00:20:37.446
- This is one of those promises of god we don't like to claim.
- 00:20:37.446 --> 00:20:41.750
- We'll claim promises all day long about god's provision,
- 00:20:41.750 --> 00:20:45.787
- God's blessing, but then, when's the last time you claimed
- 00:20:45.787 --> 00:20:49.124
- This promise?
- 00:20:49.124 --> 00:20:50.459
- All that live godly in jesus christ will suffer persecution.
- 00:20:50.459 --> 00:20:54.863
- You prayed that one lately?
- 00:20:54.863 --> 00:20:56.198
- Lord, i feel like i'm not being persecuted enough.
- 00:20:56.198 --> 00:20:59.468
- Send more persecution.
- 00:20:59.468 --> 00:21:01.103
- Well, no, we don't pray that.
- 00:21:01.103 --> 00:21:03.472
- But here's what we should do if we're persecuted.
- 00:21:03.472 --> 00:21:06.875
- We should rejoice.
- 00:21:06.875 --> 00:21:08.877
- Notice what jesus says, "blessed," or happy, "are
- 00:21:08.877 --> 00:21:12.914
- The persecuted."
- 00:21:12.914 --> 00:21:14.249
- It's interesting because he uses the word blessed twice, so
- 00:21:14.249 --> 00:21:18.120
- Double blessed are the persecuted, or another way to
- 00:21:18.120 --> 00:21:21.290
- Put it happy, happy are the persecuted.
- 00:21:21.290 --> 00:21:25.927
- Because it means that you're a child of god.
- 00:21:25.927 --> 00:21:28.997
- It's confirmation
- 00:21:28.997 --> 00:21:30.332
- You're a child of god.
- 00:21:30.332 --> 00:21:31.700
- Let me turn it around, if you're never persecuted, are you really
- 00:21:31.700 --> 00:21:34.803
- A child of god?
- 00:21:34.803 --> 00:21:37.572
- You know jesus said, beware when all men speak well of you.
- 00:21:37.572 --> 00:21:41.109
- I mean, you can be the nicest person, the friendliest person,
- 00:21:41.109 --> 00:21:44.179
- The most considerate person, and then people make up lies
- 00:21:44.179 --> 00:21:47.916
- About you.
- 00:21:47.916 --> 00:21:49.251
- Good, let them make lies up about you.
- 00:21:49.251 --> 00:21:51.520
- Here's the key, be persecuted for righteousness' sake.
- 00:21:51.520 --> 00:21:55.557
- Jesus did not say blessed are those who are persecuted for
- 00:21:55.557 --> 00:21:59.628
- Self righteousness.
- 00:21:59.628 --> 00:22:01.596
- See, the problem is sometimes as christians we're persecuted for
- 00:22:01.596 --> 00:22:05.100
- The wrong reasons.
- 00:22:05.100 --> 00:22:06.868
- We're persecuted because we're obnoxious, or because we're very
- 00:22:06.868 --> 00:22:12.274
- Judgmental, or we all act like a bunch of karens all the time.
- 00:22:12.274 --> 00:22:16.244
- You know what i'm talking about?
- 00:22:16.244 --> 00:22:17.846
- Always a critical word, always a lecture, always looking down on
- 00:22:17.846 --> 00:22:22.517
- Others, the very opposite of what we ought to be as followers
- 00:22:22.517 --> 00:22:25.387
- Of jesus.
- 00:22:25.387 --> 00:22:27.122
- Well, let it be for righteousness' sake, because
- 00:22:27.122 --> 00:22:29.925
- You're a bright light in a dark place, not persecution for being
- 00:22:29.925 --> 00:22:33.795
- Moronic, or idiotic, or any other reason.
- 00:22:33.795 --> 00:22:37.199
- And persecution can show itself in many ways.
- 00:22:37.199 --> 00:22:39.468
- It can be violent.
- 00:22:39.468 --> 00:22:41.103
- Many christians have been martyred for the faith.
- 00:22:41.103 --> 00:22:44.840
- The most persecuted people in the world today without question
- 00:22:44.840 --> 00:22:48.844
- Are christians, and so you will face persecution.
- 00:22:48.844 --> 00:22:53.315
- It can be violent.
- 00:22:53.315 --> 00:22:54.883
- It can be more subtle.
- 00:22:54.883 --> 00:22:56.251
- Maybe you're canceled because you speak up for what is true.
- 00:22:56.251 --> 00:23:00.188
- It could be the loss of a job.
- 00:23:00.188 --> 00:23:01.990
- Being the brunt of people's jokes.
- 00:23:01.990 --> 00:23:04.126
- Losing friends.
- 00:23:04.126 --> 00:23:05.660
- But it's going to happen.
- 00:23:05.660 --> 00:23:06.995
- So what should i do?
- 00:23:06.995 --> 00:23:08.330
- Hang my head in depression?
- 00:23:08.330 --> 00:23:09.698
- No, jesus says verse 12, "rejoice and be glad."
- 00:23:09.698 --> 00:23:13.034
- Or as another translation puts it, "jump and skip with
- 00:23:13.034 --> 00:23:16.671
- Happy excitement."
- 00:23:16.671 --> 00:23:18.573
- I like that.
- 00:23:18.573 --> 00:23:19.908
- Jump and skip with happy excitement.
- 00:23:19.908 --> 00:23:21.810
- Let's all do that right now.
- 00:23:21.810 --> 00:23:23.145
- Come on everybody on your feet.
- 00:23:23.145 --> 00:23:24.513
- There's really not enough room.
- 00:23:24.513 --> 00:23:25.881
- But the very opposite of what we would think.
- 00:23:25.881 --> 00:23:29.284
- Hey, man, "rejoice for so persecuted they the prophets
- 00:23:29.284 --> 00:23:34.589
- That were before you."
- 00:23:34.589 --> 00:23:35.957
- Now look, there is a way out of this, by the way.
- 00:23:35.957 --> 00:23:38.126
- You say, i don't like what you're saying, greg, it makes
- 00:23:38.126 --> 00:23:40.295
- Me uncomfortable.
- 00:23:40.295 --> 00:23:41.663
- I don't wanna be persecuted.
- 00:23:41.663 --> 00:23:42.998
- Okay, here's how you will never be persecuted.
- 00:23:42.998 --> 00:23:45.667
- Are you ready?
- 00:23:45.667 --> 00:23:47.002
- Don't be a peacemaker.
- 00:23:47.002 --> 00:23:49.171
- Don't tell others about jesus.
- 00:23:49.171 --> 00:23:51.973
- Just fit in.
- 00:23:51.973 --> 00:23:53.308
- Do what everybody else does, say what everybody else says, never
- 00:23:53.308 --> 00:23:56.711
- Say what you believe is true, and you won't be persecuted for
- 00:23:56.711 --> 00:24:00.415
- Righteousness' sake.
- 00:24:00.415 --> 00:24:01.750
- But remember what jesus said in luke 9:26, "whoever is ashamed
- 00:24:01.750 --> 00:24:07.289
- Of me and my works, of him will the son of man be ashamed when
- 00:24:07.289 --> 00:24:11.226
- He comes in his glory."
- 00:24:11.226 --> 00:24:14.429
- I don't want jesus to be ashamed of me.
- 00:24:14.429 --> 00:24:17.766
- Persecution is a confirmation that you are a child of god.
- 00:24:17.766 --> 00:24:21.636
- It means you're doing your job right.
- 00:24:21.636 --> 00:24:23.939
- And persecution can be used by god to help us spiritually.
- 00:24:23.939 --> 00:24:28.376
- Now, i know, i've not painted for some, a very appealing
- 00:24:28.376 --> 00:24:32.280
- Picture of the christian life today have i?
- 00:24:32.280 --> 00:24:35.217
- Okay, if you wanna be a christian, you gotta be humble.
- 00:24:35.217 --> 00:24:37.652
- You've got to be meek.
- 00:24:37.652 --> 00:24:38.987
- You've gotta be forgiving.
- 00:24:38.987 --> 00:24:40.355
- You've gotta be merciful, and you'll probably be persecuted.
- 00:24:40.355 --> 00:24:43.425
- Oh, great.
- 00:24:43.425 --> 00:24:45.026
- Where do i sign up?
- 00:24:45.026 --> 00:24:48.964

- 00:25:03.979 --> 00:25:08.416
