The Beautitudes and What They Mean

From 3 perspectives

* The Biblical Worldview

* The Academic/Scholastic

* The Urantia Book: Paper 140.

When you find my children in distress, speak encouragingly to them, saying:

"Happy are the poor in spirit, the humble, for theirs are the treasures of the kingdom of heaven.

Happy are they who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be filled.

Happy are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.

Happy are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.

And even so speak to my children these further words of spiritual comfort and promise:

Happy are they who mourn, for they shall be comforted. Happy are they who weep, for they shall receive the spirit of rejoicing.

Happy are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy.

Happy are the peacemakers, for they shall be called the sons of God.

Happy are they who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Happy are you when men shall revile you and persecute you and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely. Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven.
