Mathew makes a point of speaking of the spiritual state of those who suffer for the sake of Christ down in verses 11 and 12 as to why he recounted verses 1 through 10. 1 through 10 are all spiritual states of the oppressed who will suffer for His sake. Mathew makes a point of talking about who will suffer for the sake of Christ; the poor in spirit, those who mourn, the gentle, those who hunger for righteousness sake, the merciful, the pure in heart, the peacemakers, the persecuted - he is making statements about spiritual people doing spiritual things.
Luke makes different points. Luke contrasts the physically oppressed to those who are rich and happy; the poor, the hungry, the ostracized, the insulted, the scorned - in other words the outcasts, the oppressed by society. The contrast he makes are largely down in verses 27 through 38 of those who "hear" the word of God and recieve it and those who do not who swindle the poor and abuse them.
The reward in Mathew is in heaven and is great. the reward in Luke is great and is to be sons of the most high.
They are both talking about the same event from different points of view. It is like when two people go to the same birthday party and go tell different groups of friends two stories about the same event. One person talks about what stood out to him as important, and the other person talks about what stood out to him as important. The stories have some of the same exact elements in them, and some different ones too, but they do not contradict one another, or ommit anything, it is just different aspects of the same story.
Hope this helps.
Luke 6:27 But I say to you who hear, love our enemies, do good to those who hate you.

I don't think so because you can die without repenting of your sins ad getting a bad heart and (i believe) go to hell but if you repent of your sins at the end of your life and you die with a good heart then you will go to heaven. |

Pure joy in Heaven? |
Answer |
Rev 21:4 |

Verse 3 states: "Now God makes his home with people. He will live with them." Many mistakenly read this as if it states that man makes his home with God and now live with him. This prophecy is the completion of God's purpose for the earth. Verse 2 pictures 'the new Jerusalem coming down out of heaven from God.' In this way, thru Christ and his bride, it will be "as if" God is making his home with us. "In that way, God will be all in all." (1 Cor 15:28) |

Meditate on the account of Lazarus in John chapter 11. Jesus delayed going to his sick friend long enough for his family and friends to watch him suffer and die and then, to mourn. But notice how they reacted when he was resurrected from the dead. They were not upset with Jesus any longer, but were beside themselves over this miracle. This is a mini-example of what we can look forward to in the future. When God's tent resides with mankind, any memories of this old world will be overwhelmed by what God will bring about. |
