First the Kingdom - Spiritual Beggars

Two words for "poor" in Greek:

1. Not owning any property
2. So poor that you had to beg

Those who will be blessed need to realize they are spiritually bankrupt and understand we are spiritual beggars before God - Matthew 5:3

We are in Sin	God is Not
We are in need	God has plenty
We are stuck	God has the ability to free us

Only through confession and humility - only by owning up to our sin

Spiritual Beggars can have everything in the Kingdom of God
