BEATITUDES LIVING IT. It has everything to do with Jesus Christ. HIS words are simple and inspire others to be like HIM. When Jesus Christ taught the Sermon on the Mount (Beatitudes), HE taught the people how to be like unto HIM and HIS Father and said to do and teach (Matthew 5).

Jesus Christ has already done the hard part (atonement) for each of us on both sides of the veil, infinitely forward and infinitely back.
