126 The Beatitudes – The New Law of the Gospel
Manage episode 377066434 series 2904078
The Beatitudes of the Gospel are eight statements that our Lord taught within the context of the Sermon of the Mount (chapters 5-7 of St. Matthew). They are attitudes, ideals we have to aim for if we want to be true disciples of Christ. They portray, in some way, an image of Jesus Christ, they describe the heart of the Gospel. Those who live them out are “blessed”, they are favored by God, and will receive eternal happiness, the reward of Heaven.
