NT Bible Study 85: cont. sermons - poor in spirit? (Beginning of Jesus' Galilean Ministry part 45)

This is a comparative Bible study on the events surrounding the beginning of Jesus' Galilean ministry. This 45th part continues discussing Jesus' Sermons on the Mount and Plain, in particular, what is meant by the phrase "...poor in spirit...". (Matthew 4:23-5:3; Luke 6:17-20). Other verses referenced during this Bible study are: Luke 24:37, 2 Peter 1:21, Romans 8:16, 1 John 4:1-2, James 2:26, Hebrews 4:12i, 1 Thessalonians 5:23, 1 Peter 4:6, John 4:24, Psalm 34:18, Psalm 51:17, Proverbs 16:19, Proverbs 29:23, Isaiah 57:15, Isaiah 66:2, James 4:5-6. Overall, this is our 85th New Testament (NT) Bible study. I'm a layperson, hoping to witness things I believe I've learned through Bible study, and would like to share this information as a friend would with a friend.
