Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The power, elegance and simplicity of the Beatitudes are remarkable among all writings of all religions. It would not be difficult to argue that the rest of the New Testament is simply a further explanation and an illustration of a life lived thru the manifestation of one who would followed the path of the Beatitudes and the results of not doing so.

St. Augustine, Thomas Aquinas and others stated that the Beatitudes are the steps that must be climbed for spiritual development. This book describes the preparation required for one who would understand and follow the Path of the Beatitudes and gives glimpses of the nine steps in practical terms that the reader can verify through personal experience.…

The authors, recent graduates, are unknown - anonymity serves them well, as the 'good sportsmen' of these vignettes are drawn from their peers, the extent of whose ambition ('When he is Archbishop of Canterbury, Freddy hopes to be in the Cabinet, and [.] Squiff is well on his way to ruling a Province in India') are probably, like some of the tales within, a little exaggerated, but would be compromised by full disclosure.…
