Episode: The Royal Gospel 13: Beatitudes Pt. 3 – Blessed Are the Meek // Pastor David Engelhardt
Description: This message explores the third Beatitude, "Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth," emphasizing that meekness is not weakness. Pastor David dismantles cultural misunderstandings around the term, illustrating how biblical meekness—strength under control—is modeled in the person of Jesus and symbolized by a trained warhorse: powerful yet obedient. Meekness is a necessary condition for kingdom inheritance and spiritual authority, not an optional character trait. The sermon warns against the modern virtue of self-determination and celebrates the gentleness of Jesus, who leads with tender strength and calls His people to embody the same.
