NT Bible Study 86: cont. sermons: meek & poor spirit (Beginning of Jesus' Galilean Ministry part 46)

This is a comparative Bible study on the events surrounding the beginning of Jesus' Galilean ministry. This 46th part continues discussing Jesus' Sermons on the Mount and Plain, in particular, the "meek" and how it might relate to the phrase "...poor in spirit..." and if this has anything to do with bragging and being conceited (vaunting ourselves and being puffed-up). (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, Zechariah 9:9; Matthew 21:5; 1 Peter 3:4; Ephesians 4:2; Matthew 11:29; 1 Corinthians 4:21; Galatians 6:1; 1 Corinthians 13:4ii . Overall, this is our 86th 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.
