Introduction to the Beatitudes

In this sermon, Pastor Sincere Cardona launches Kings' Church deeper into the “Royal Gospel” series, focusing on the first Beatitude: “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” He unpacks how Jesus' Sermon on the Mount reveals the Kingdom's ethics and contrasts the world’s understanding of blessing with God’s divine declaration of favor. With rich illustrations and theological clarity, Pastor Sincere reminds believers that the Beatitudes are not a checklist to enter the Kingdom, but a portrait of the kind of people who already belong to it. Central to the message is the call to embrace humility and spiritual dependency, trusting that the kingdom is both a present reality and a future hope.
