Produktbeschreibung

"Exposition of the Beatitudes" is a thought-provoking book that challenges common misconceptions about happiness. Jeremiah Burroughs, with deep theological insight, exposes the fallacies of seeking fulfillment in sensual pleasures, honors, riches, virtues, knowledge, and even the contemplation of divine things. Instead, he directs readers to the teachings of Jesus Christ, explaining how the Beatitudes hold the key to true blessedness. Burroughs argues that while perfect happiness may be unattainable in this sinful world, there exists a genuine blessedness in qualities, actions, and sufferings that point towards the ultimate fulfillment in Christ.

In a world filled with uncertainty and impending loss, Burroughs highlights the precarious nature of worldly comforts and the need to find true blessedness in the Christian Beatitudes. He warns readers of the illusory nature of worldly happiness and invites them to embrace the blessedness defined by Jesus himself. By aligning one's life with the teachings of Christ, regardless of the challenges and changes of the times, Burroughs assures readers of a blessed end and a meaningful existence.

These sermons, meticulously preserved and unpublished for thirteen years following the author's death, carry the spirit of Jeremiah Burroughs within them. The publishers aim to bring these sermons to light to guide readers towards true blessedness, even in the midst of unhappy times. They urge readers to align their thoughts, affections, and actions with this profound understanding of happiness and find solace in a blessed life that transcends worldly circumstances. Updated English for modern readers.
