Beautiful Eulogy - Blessed Are The Merciful Lyrics






Are you merciful? Why?
Because Jesus healed the sick
Because Jesus fed the multitudes
Because Jesus gave legs to the crippled
Because Jesus granted sight to the blind
Because Jesus opened the ears of the deaf
Because Jesus found prostitutes and tax collectors and drew them into the sphere of His love
Because Jesus touched the untouchable
And loved the unlovable
And forgave the unforgivable
And welcomed the undesirable
Because Jesus even now saves the otherwise unsavable, why!?
Because they deserve it!?
When the goodness and loving kindness of God our Savior appeared
He saved us NOT because of works done in righteousness
NOT because we met Him halfway
NOT because we took the proper steps forward
And in good faith have elevated ourselves to the place of the deserving poor
But according to His mercy!

We are here because Jesus Christ didn't say with cold indifference
"Give them what they deserve, they brought it on themselves!"
Jesus Christ IS the Mercy of God!
And seeing us in our misery and need
He doesn't just feel for us
He takes the necessary action to relieve our distress
He leaves the eternal glory of heaven and the perfect fellowship of the Trinity
He condescends to us
Lives among us
Suffers like us
Dies for us!
Do you understand this!?
Have YOU experienced this!?
How then is it possible to experience it and not display it!?
It isn't possible!
You haven't experienced it if you don't display it!
The evidence of God's mercy in your life isn't determined by how much theology you know
By how many books you read
But by your active goodness to people in misery and in need!

Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy

  1. L.... ....

    Can jesus forgive the unforgivable

  2. S.... G....

    MERCY!!

  3. M.... S....

    "Drew" them in... probably not "threw" them in

    M.... S....

    ?????????? A quick study shows that, although Jesus is merciful and gentle, His Word carries great force. So, 'threw' them in isn't too far off - assuming they are willing.

    Still, you are kind of focused on the 'dill and cummin' aren't you?

  4. d.... j....

    Thank God for His Mercy and may He move In us to display His will and purpose as we receive and let Him reign moment to moment.

  5. A.... F....

    Although I agree with the content of this message, it is a bit "yell-y" so I am not so sure that the tone is merciful ironically. Also the word "receive" which appears near the end is misspelled. I only bring up because the flashing words constitute the visuals in this message.

    A.... F....

    Emotion is not the opposite of mercy. In fact, I would say it takes a great passion to bestow mercy. Luke 23:46, Matthew 27:46, Matthew 27:50, John 11:43.

    A.... F....

    nit pick?

  6. J.... p....

    I might use this tomorrow for an intro to our teachings at the homeless shelter.

  7. R.... N....

    Amen, misericordia a los demas, ya que no recibimos lo que mereciamos por que?? por quetuvo misericordia de nosotros!!! Hermosa la manera de ponerlo!

  8. C.... M....

    THIS NEEDS TO BE SCENE

  9. I.... M....

    A-Men!!

  10. j.... ....

    Who is speaking this??? I love this!!!

    j.... ....

    +jazziegurl97 Pretty sure it is Art Azurdia, pastor of Trinity Church in Portland.

    j.... ....

    sounds like john piper

    j.... ....

    sounds like john piper

  11. L.... W....

    So very well put.

  12. L.... M....

    That reminds me of the old saying that, if you have to tell people that you are a Christian, you are doing it wrong.

  13. N.... N....

    Why did i waste my time with this :( I searched for propaganda and omfg thats what i got O.O

    N.... N....

    +Nicolaj Nielsen That's OK- no matter. Someday you will undeniably, unmistakeably hunger and plead for mercy. I hope you find it.

    N.... N....

    So just because u ended up watch this doesn't mean its bad this is a lesson u need to read the words next time.

    N.... N....

    +Brooklyn Morales God blesses everyone no matter what christian rapper u listen too.

    N.... N....

    I would assume from the tone and tenor of your remark that most of your time is wasted. But, rest assured, had you been able to HEAR instead of just listening, you would have gotten it.

    You go around looking for a fight or an argument. Put your need for adrenaline to good use and get to KNOW the True Christ: Jesus. Just try it!

  14. S.... C....

    This is awesome, make one for "The String That Ties Us"!

  15. C.... G....

    Wow this was awesome, I loved it. I like how there was just a white screen for a while at the end. It really helped ponder and soak it all in.
