i know all the eight beatitudes, but for my project i have to find eight articles that match each beatitude then i have to write a essay on each. I understand what they mean it's just it's hard for me to make up a essay on them when the meaning is for they shall inherit the earth. So all i want is an example of what each of them mean.

Beatitudes Meaning
2016-12-13 06:19:40 · answer #2 · answered by ? 4 · 0⤊ 0⤋
The Beatitudes (sic) are in Mathew 5:3-11 and also in Luke 6:20-26.
The Beatitudes are comprised of three elements: a pronouncement of blessing, a quality of life, and a reason why the recipient should be considered blessed. The first element is found in the word Blessed (see Ps.1:1) which introduces each beatitude. The second element does not describe different groups of people, but a composite picture of the kind of person who will inherit Christ's kingdom. the Third element looks ahead to some aspect of the coming kingdom.

If you need someone to tell you what the beatitudes mean you are not reading them.

It's in the Gospel of Matthew and nearly every house in the nation has at least one Bible, so read it and decide for yourself.

They aren't called the BE-attitudes for nothing.
Do what they say and reap the rewards they promise.
