In Blissful Ignorance - Matthew 5:4 - Not Blessed

Matthew 5:4
“Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.

Not blessed are those who dwell in blissful ignorance of their wretched state, who have no need for God, for they receive their comfort now. The peace of God lies outside their grasp.

Luke 15:7
Just so, I tell you, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety- nine righteous persons who need no repentance.


Revelation 1:7-8 NIV
“Look, he is coming with the clouds,”
and “every eye will see him,
even those who pierced him”;
and all peoples on earth “will mourn because of him.”
So shall it be! Amen.
 “I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, “who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty.”
