How will we be comforted? What does it truly mean to mourn? Here’s a way to think about this Beatitude: Intense mourning results in incredible joy! Dr. Sean Cole addresses FOUR issues of this Beatitude and delves deeply into the timely issue of weeping and mourning. First, what the mourning Jesus blesses is NOT. Second, what actually causes us to weep? Third, what does it truly mean to mourn? Fourth, when will we be comforted? To receive the beauty of salvation, we must first grieve, mourn, and weep over our own personal sin and all its ravaging effects so that we can genuinely experience the liberating forgiveness of Christ.
