As we continue to study the beatitudes we have been focusing on the second set of them that deal with having righteous relationships with other people. Mercy, pure in heart, and peacemaker all relate directly to how we relate to other people. To have a righteous relationship with God, we need to live in righteous relationship with one another.
The fact is that in the real world people will conflict. We have different personalities, gifts, histories, and views of the world. When you put people together and ask them to interact, those different parts of the personal narrative will inevitably clash and lead to conflict. How we work around and through these conflicts directly reflects on how we relate to one another.
