1I am not sure your title can be deduced from Matt 5:8 - ultimately all the righteous will see God (Rev 22:4) because all the righteous are pure in heart. One can get further with John 3:19-21 and Rom 1:18-22. The wicked will be excluded from God's kingdom because they refused to accept God and thus, do not want to be there (Rev 6:15-17).

@Dottard So maybe the question should be is Matt. 5:8 something fulfilled during this lifetime or in heaven?Perry Webb– Perry Webb2023-03-06 03:14:36 +00:00Commented Mar 6, 2023 at 3:14

Are you effectively asking about Jesus' intent of the meaning of this beatitude?Dottard– Dottard2023-03-06 04:51:52 +00:00Commented Mar 6, 2023 at 4:51

@Dottard Or, how broad a sense did Jesus intend. Does it apply in this life, not just heaven?Perry Webb– Perry Webb2023-03-06 10:36:11 +00:00Commented Mar 6, 2023 at 10:36

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. word-study), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
