Calvin preached 5 sermons on the Beatitudes between the years 1559 and 1564, while preaching an extended series on the Synoptic Gospels, which he never completed. He died three months later in 1564.

Then lifting up his eyes upon his disciples, he said, Blessed are you who are poor, for the kingdom of God is yours. Blessed are you who hunger now, for you will be filled (Luke 6:20-21a).

What is TULIP?

T -- Total Depravity. Human beings are so affected by the negative consequences of original sin that they are incapable of being righteous, and are always and unchangeably sinful; human freedom is totally enslaved by sin so we can only choose evil.

U -- Unconditional Election. God chooses to save people unconditionally; that is, they are not chosen on the basis of their own merit.

L -- Limited Atonement. The sacrifice of Christ on the cross was for the purpose of saving the elect.

I -- Irresistible Grace. When God has chosen to save someone, He will.

P -- Perseverance of the Saints. Those people God chooses cannot lose their salvation; they will continue to believe. If they fall away, it will be only for a time.
