It is said that "your attitude determines your altitude". and Jesus taught us what attitude we should have at all times - His beloved be-attitudes or beatitudes (Mat 5:3-12). These indeed will determine how far you advance in God's kingdom. This book is about the study of and how to have these attitudes ingrained in your heart and soul. Excerpted from Thomas Watson's Book: "The Beautitudes", we here study "The Pure In Heart" "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God." - Matthew 5:8 Although all the beautitudes are important we focus here on purity of heart as this will allow you to see God and hence lead you into all His nature and "attitude." Ask God to ingrain these attitudes into your heart and soul. Then study the beatitudes (hunger and thirst for them) to learn them and how to get insight to get these in your life - your heart and soul. By God's grace you will get these into your life and you will see the beautiful fruit in your life.

We ALL need mercy. We have all sinned and fall short of God's glory. All of us. This is why we desperately need God's mercy. Since we "reap what we sow" this is a very big reason why we should be merciful to others. It is said that "your attitude determines your altitude". and Jesus taught us what attitude we should have at all times - His beloved be-attitudes or beatitudes. These indeed will determine how far you advance in God's kingdom. This book is about the study of and how to have these attitudes ingrained in your heart and soul. Here we focus on being Merciful and The Peacemakers (Excerpted from Thomas Watson's book "The Beatitudes"): 7 Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy. 9 Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God. Ask God to ingrain these attitudes into your heart and soul. Then study the beatitudes (hunger and thirst for them) to learn them and how to get insight to get these in your life - your heart and soul. By God's grace you will get these into your life and you will see the beautiful fruit in your life.

"I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want". (NIV) - Philippians 4:12 "The secret of being content in any and every situation." What a statement. No matter what, Paul learned how to be content regardless of the circumstance. Let us study from verse 10 to 13. To understand this amazing view point and attitude that Paul learned: 10 I rejoiced greatly in the Lord that at last you renewed your concern for me. Indeed, you were concerned, but you had no opportunity to show it. 11 I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. 12 I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. 13 I can do all this through Him who gives me strength. Regardless of the circumstance, Jesus is ALWAYS there with you, TO GIVE YOU STRENGTH If you have God - you have EVERYTHING EVERYTHING you need, everything.

For the Faceless are back with a vengeance, and as implacable as ever.The Commonwealth has known nothing but peace for almost four hundred years. Now, war is upon them. How do you prepare for a thing no one alive has ever seen?
