actually there were more they are from St St. St Matthew Matthew Mat Mat- thew Chapter 5 S 1 12 1 The character of the men who are to be citizens of Gods God's kingdom is summed up in these Beatitudes or blessings spoken at the beginning of the Sermon on the Mount They are a contradiction of the worlds world's i values they are the perfection of Christs Christ's I doctrine and are based on love Giving as a means of receiving Gods God's love those I who live by them will enter the Heavenly kingdom Blessed are the poor in spirit for theirs Is 15 the kingdom of God Is the first of them followed by Blessed are the meek for they shall possess the earth a warning to all haughty despots and tyrants and an echo to be found inthe In Inthe Inthe the mighty magnificat or prayer of joy of Our Lady Because God has regarded the lowliness of His ills handmaid For be behold behold behold be- be hold henceforth all generations shall call me bless blessed d in St St. Luke Chapter 1 60 and further on He has scattered the proud in the conceit of their heart He has put down the mighty from their thrones and has exalted the lowly He has haa filled the hungry with good things and the rich He has sent away empty St. St Luke Chapter I 51 I a Bossuet the very famous preacher of ot France in other days has said If the Sermon Bermon on the Mount is an abridgment of ot the whole Christian doctrine the eight Beatitudes are an abridgment of the whole Sermon on the Mount And an equally brilliant orator In that Seventeenth Century period says They have sounded through the world as paradoxes Plato has haa stated Only the just man Is happy but never had human lips until the Sermon on the Mount yet dared to call the poor and oppressed worthy of envy The history of Christianity was to prove this truth Our Lords Lord's divine consolation was offered offered offered offer- offer ed to all suffering souls on earth Blessed are they who suffer sutter persecution persecution tion for justices justice's sake Blessed are you jou ou when men reproach you and persecute you And speaking falsely bay hay all manner of evil against you for my sake Rejoice I and exult because your reward rd Is great In Heaven But our Lord now thunders Woe to you rich I For you jou OU are now having your comfort your little Heaven lea Ilea leaven ven on earth with no chance of a second one and then gives the rules of charity cl Love Lovo your enemies do good to those who hate you Bless those who curse you Pray for those who calumniate you And to him who strikes thee on the one cheek offer the other also and from him who takes away thy cloak do not withhold thy tunic either Give to everyone everyone everyone every every- one who asks of thee tine and from him who takes away thy goods ask no return And even as you wish men to do to you so also do you to them And If it you love those who love you what merit have you For even sinners love those who love them And if you do good to those who do good to you what merit have you For even sinners do that St. St Luke Chapter 6 a 27 34 So bang goes the of o our i- i little minds If It we merely are good helpful helpful helpful help help- ful and kind to those of
