The Beatitudes of Jesus Christ

THE BEATITUDES

1. Blest are the poor in spirit: the reign of God is theirs.

2. Blest are the sorrowing: they shall be consoled.

3. Blest are the lowly: they shall inherit the land.

4. Blest are they who hunger and thirst for holiness: they shall have their fill.

5. Blest are they who show mercy: mercy shall be theirs.

6. Blest are the single hearted: for they shall see God.

7. Blest are the peacemakers: they shall be called sons of God.

8. Blest are those persecuted for holiness sake: the reign of God is theirs.
Matthew 5: 3-10
