If the Devil were to write his Beatitudes, they
would probably go something like this:
Blessed are those who are too tired, too busy, too
distracted to spend an hour once a week with their
fellow Christians in Church - they are my best
workers.
Blessed are those Christians who wait to be asked
and expect to be thanked-- I can use them.
Blessed are the touchy, with a bit of luck they
may stop going to church-- they are my
missionaries.
Blessed are those who are very religious but get
on everyone's nerves-- they are mine forever.
Blessed are the troublemakers-- they shall be
called my children.
Blessed are those who have no time to pray-- they
are easy prey for me.
Blessed are the gossipers, for they are my secret
agents.
Blessed are those critical of church leadership,
for they shall inherit a place with me in my fate.
Blessed are the complainers-- I'm all ears for
them.
Blessed are you when you read this and think it is
about other people and not yourself-- I've got
you.
--Author unknown.
In contrast God's Be - Attitudes are found in Matthew chapter 5
Matthew 5
The Beatitudes 1Now when he saw the crowds, he went up on a mountainside and sat down. His disciples came to him, 2and he began to teach them saying:
3Blessed are the poor in spirit,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
4Blessed are those who mourn,
for they will be comforted.
5Blessed are the meek,
for they will inherit the earth.
6Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
for they will be filled.
7Blessed are the merciful,
for they will be shown mercy.
8Blessed are the pure in heart,
for they will see God.
9Blessed are the peacemakers,
for they will be called sons of God.
10Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
11Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. 12Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you. |
