** Task 2, Challenge 2: ** The Beatitudes are eight statements made by God and told through Jesus. For us Christians they are guidelines to stay on the path of happines and to be with God. By Selu

The Beatitudes are eight statements taught by Jesus. These Beatitudes were said and taught during the Sermon of the Mount event. By Saia

The Beatitudes are eight statements taught by Jesus. For us Christians they are guidelines to stay on the path of happiness and to be with God. By Rico Task 3, Challenge 2 ** Task 3, Challenge 2 ** The parable I have chosen is the parable of the sower where Jesus explains what happens to seeds that tries to grow on a certain terrain. The seeds that land on the road will get trampled on foot and devoured by birds, seeds that lands on rock grows and hears the words with joy but withers away because there are no roots, seeds that are planted near the thorns are choked and seeds that land in good soil grows greatly and bears good fruit. Seeds on road are those who hears the words then the devil comes Seeds on rock are those who receive word with joy but only believes for a while and fall into temptation Seeds on thorns are those who hear but on their way they are choked with cares, riches and pleasures of live with no fruit of maturity. Seeds that grow among good soil are those with such honest hearts having heard the word and holding it tightly and brings forth the fruits with patience. I chose this parable because it illustrates the beatitudes, "Blessed are those with pure heart, for they shall see God" and "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called the children of God" The seeds that grow among good soil have honest or pure hearts holding their beliefs tightly and they will see God these seeds also offer peace to others even though these others do not bear good fruit and the word of God as tightly as the pure hearts and peacemakers.

** Task 4, Challenge 2 **

** __By Group__ ** 5. Here again, you have two choices: (complete on your own and label) Task 5, Challenge 2 ** Task 5, Challenge 2 ** Today in the streets or alley ways we see many poor or homeless people begging for money or help, alot of us do not like to be annoyed with the poor or homeless so we ignore them or some start arguments with them, this is a real life situation marginalizing the homeless and the poor to the rest of the world This situation relates to the Beatitudes of mercy and poor spirit. By Selu A situation where someone is an outcast or marginalised is at primary,middle and high schools. Kids may seem like an outcast because they may feel different to other kids. The Beatitude(s) that relate to this situation: -They that mourn: for they shall be comforted. -The merciful: for they shall obtain mercy. By Saia Situation- If someone's parent or parents died and decided to be alone making himself or herself an outcast or marginalised. The Beatitude(s) that would relate to this situation are: -Blessed are they who mourn, for they shall be comforted.-Those that are poor of spirit they shall know the kingdom of God. By Rico
