  1. Read again the qualities Jesus said are blessed in 5:3–9. Can you remember any people in your life's experience who were/are characterized by those qualities? Describe that person in your own words.
     
     
     
     
     
     
  2. Why would a person with such commendable qualities as we saw in 5:3–9 be insulted and persecuted, as Jesus predicted in 5:10–12? Why do you think that Jesus said that those who experience persecution are blessed?
     
     
     
     
     
     
  3. Discuss the effects of salt and light in the world. Why would Jesus describe his followers as salt and light?
     
     
     
     
     
     
  4. Jesus unequivocally described his followers as salt and light. In what ways might we not exercise the effect in the world that salt and light should possess?
     
     
     
     
     
     
  5. How, specifically, might you be salt and light in the places where God placed you?
