"Blessed are they who are persecuted for the sake of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven." (Matthew 5: 11). Are the Beatitudes principles for spiritual happiness and contentment credible? They are patterned on the life of Jesus Christ. How can persecution, insults, discrimination, rejection result in a blessed and happy life? The answer is uncomplicated for those who know the "Scriptures and the power of God." (Matthew 22: 29, Mark 12: 24). This is a paradox: Lose your life, security in order to find it. If all you have is God, you have everything. Christian and experiences of other religions prove the truth. "Rejoice and be glad, for your reward will be great in heaven. Thus they persecuted the prophets who were before you." (Matthew 5: 12). Believe or not believe, this is the question. "For my thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways my ways—oracle of the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, my thoughts higher than your thoughts."

Citat: "Blago siromasima duhom: njihovo je kraljevstvo nebesko! Blago ožalošćenima: oni će se utješiti! Blago krotkima: oni će baštiniti zemlju! Blago gladnima i žednima pravednosti: oni će se nasititi! Blago milosrdnima: oni će zadobiti milosrđe! Blago čistima srcem: oni će Boga gledati! Blago mirotvorcima: oni će se sinovima Božjim zvati! Blago progonjenima zbog pravednosti: njihovo je kraljevstvo nebesko!" "Blago vama kad vas - zbog mene - pogrde i prognaju i sve zlo slažu protiv vas! Radujte se i kličite: velika je plaća vaša na nebesima! Ta progonili su tako proroke prije vas!" što je Isus time htio reći, tko su blaženi? čime su zaslužili biti blaženi? na koji način se očituje to blaženstvo? posebno mi nije jasno ono prvo - blaženi siromasi duhom. nailazim na različita objašnjenja, ne mogu razlučiti ono pravo, i ne mogu shvatiti bit. jel trebamo težiti biti među tim navedenim blaženima? ali ne mogu si objasniti kako možemo težiti da budemo npr. progonjeni - to ne ovisi o nama, nego o okolini hoće li nas progoniti ili neće
