Introduction to the Beautitudes

The author, D Martyn Lloyd Jones states that all Christians are to live a life exhibiting the Beautitudes. They are not reserved for a select few super Christians. If you are a Christian, they must describe your conduct. The Beautitudes are a description of our character. The intent of the Beautitudes is that all Christians manifest all of the Beautitudes all of the time. The point that the author makes is that the Beautitudes do not naturally occur in all Christians. We cannot work to make the Beautitudes part of our lives. It is only through the power of the Holy Spirit and by God's grace.
