One of the great teachings of Christ is the Beatitudes. In this teaching he provided to his followers his expressed expectations concerning his standard in righteousness and character development. He expressed through his identification of character attributes his expected personality of his bride. This can’t be accomplished of yourself or by your own power. This will take us entering relationship with our Lord and Savior. We must stay connected to Christ to sustain and preserve our spiritual gift of salvation. We can do nothing outside of him. The Beatitudes is our mirror of reflection to help us determine if we are actively and successfully in the faith. We must produce the fruits of the Spirit and become the body of Christ on the Earth as instructed and expected.
