The Beatitudes: 13 Messages to Help You Reach Your Greatest Fulfillment as a Child of God

Más información sobre el libro

The Beatitudes, articulated by Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount, present seven declarations of blessedness that outline the characteristics of an ideal disciple and the spiritual rewards they receive. Each declaration emphasizes a deeper, stress-free happiness linked to spiritual well-being rather than superficial joy. The text explores the connection between the qualities of the blessed—such as humility and mercy—and their corresponding rewards, such as comfort and the kingdom of heaven. This structure also reflects a literary tradition found in both the Old and New Testaments.
