Beatitudes In My Life

I chose the beatitude, “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied”. I chose this beatitude due to the fact I believe that it is extremely important. Surprisingly, I realized that it is important as a result of numerous people in our society aren't fighting for what is right. For example, the lgbtq community. The lgbtq community is not being supported by plentiful people. I believe this is wrong due to the fact everyone should be treated equally and fairly

Jesus introduced the eight beatitudes to teach his followers how to live an ideal Christian life. He taught those who listened about the 8 important blessings to guide us to soon be living an everlasting life with God in His kingdom above. Some of the Beatitudes influence us to feel compassion towards those who have wronged us, to be able to act out of the goodness of our hearts, and to bring peace and harmony to friends and enemies in times of disagreement. These Beatitudes are significant to us as

revealed to Dante and subsequently to Dante’s readers now days. The Vita Nuova may be called the entrance of that solemn sanctuary, the Divine Comedy. This essay will look at Beatrice named, the bringer of beatitude, and her smile. Also Beatrice will be interpreted as the medium of beatitude itself to Dante the poet. The great poet [Dante] may be held in due honour and that he may be for the pupils the teacher of Christian doctrine, he whose one purpose in his poem was ‘to raise mortals from the

The Beatitudes may appear as if they are merely a simple arrangement of blessings, but in reality they are full of meaning and beyond any ordinary passage in the Bible. Every line in the Beatitudes is not only a blessing, but a call for action directed towards the people of Israel. The passage seems to focus on Jesus as he speaks to his disciples and the crowd listening about how they could achieve the righteousness that will create the foundation of Heaven. He is not simply encouraging people to

This is my paper on The 10 Commandments, The Beatitudes, and The Codex. This paper will cover Comparing and Contrasting of the two. Good Luck! Starting with comparing the Beatitudes and the Codex. The Beatitudes lean toward the poor, the weak, the ones who aren't on top. It talks about how if you are this, and you don’t have this, you will receive it. The Codex is if you do go against something that is wrong. Like trying to sue someone for no reason then it will turn around on you. You will

to all who may listen. He made ten main points in His sermon. These points are known as the Beatitudes and they form the beginning of what has come to be known as the Sermon on the Mount. The beatitudes introduce the teachings of Jesus in the Gospels of Matthew. They are traditionally considered to be a concise summary of the spiritual life we should lead. By following the Lord’s teachings in the beatitudes one can begin to unfold the mysteries of Christ and the Kingdom of God. It is through the example

My artwork is a visual representation of the parable, The Net (Matthew 13:47-50). It also reflects the beatitude “Blessed the pure in heart, they shall see God.” I believe the values that are demonstrated in this parable and beatitude is faithfulness, righteousness and pureness. When people look at my art work the first thing i want them to notice is the difference between the two sunflowers. I want them to notice the dying sunflower on the right side of the page and the alive sunflower on the left

Within the Western theistic tradition, the Christian God is conceived as a mysterious, supreme deity that is the only being worth of worship because He is “something than which nothing greater can be conceived” (Anslem 1033-1109). This God is the great architect of the universe whom represents the depth and complexities of human experiences. Such mystery is why writing about God is essentially writing about the complexities of human beings. This inconceivably complex God was researched in numerous

it would cost his life (as seen in the original myth and Auden’s poem). Both poems turn Icarus’s suffering into a paradox — he is in a state of inescapability, and yet he is also able to escape. But no matter the choice Icarus makes, he is doomed in a cycle of suffering, no matter what choice he makes. Overall, a general theme may be gleamed from the tale of Icarus and subsequently, the two poems when taken in the context of the myth. The theme is that suffering is a part of life. Similar to Icarus
