THE BEATITUDES INTRODUCTION

Some years ago, I was fortunate to be given a small booklet that was written by Christian Minister J.F. Webb based on his notes from Sunday sermons he gave in Lent.

I understand that the Beatitudes are considered to be the teachings of Jesus in the "Sermon on the Mount", J.F. Webb, stated in his booklet "they are not self-explanatory and their very simplicity is deceptive." In J.F. Webb's postscript to his booklet, he stated "That he was providing these notes on the Beatitudes simply to stimulate or provoke thoughts on the core of Jesus's teachings."

As I read the Reverent Webb's booklet, I recognized that the Beatitudes are a system of learning offered by Jesus to stimulate our growth as human beings. The model you see below, and the descriptions are a system of learning that I developed based on the inspiration the Beatitudes and J. F. Webb's notes. I offer them not as a modern translation of the Beatitudes, but rather as inspired by the Beatitudes.
