Title: Happiness Separated from the World
Content Happiness separate from the world (Matthew 5:1 - 12)
The purpose of Jesus' coming was clearly to save us from our sins.
It is the restoration of God's glory that saves us from sin, and the restoration of man from misery.
The sin of salvation is the greatest evil of mankind who rebelled against God, and it makes mankind unhappy.
The purpose of Jesus' coming as a cause of creation was to bring happiness to mankind.
The blessings that Jesus wants to give are not the blessings people of the world say,
Because it is a true blessing that enables people to live happily
Jesus proclaims the kingdom of heaven and says, “Be happy.”

Because of human sin, they have fallen and cannot enjoy true happiness in this world.
As fallen and sinful human beings, no matter what blessings they receive, they are not true blessings.
People on this earth want to be blessed, but no one is happy with that blessing.
It is not a blessing to be unable to give you happiness.
Many people receive the blessings of the world, but it is not the true blessing, so many people become more unhappy.
Some people longed for material blessings when they were poor, but after receiving material blessings, they lost their lives.
There are many people.
Even though we know that there is no spring of happiness in this world that gives us the true value of life, we foolishly search for it. There are so many people on the planet who want to be happy and struggle to have many things, but no one says they are happy with it, so Jesus has compassion on humans and invites us to the path of true happiness.

The Beatitudes of Jesus are those who want to deny themselves, take up their cross, and follow the Lord.
