Beatitudes, Not Platitudes shows that the Beatifudes are not overused, well-worn answers to the question, "What would Jesus do?"  Rather, they are undervalued and hardly touched claims that transform our destinies.  More than spiritual nuggets for personal devotion, practical advice, or propositions to be believed, the Beatitudes in Mathew 5 envision and entail a reorientation of the good life in view of Jesus' kindgom.  Jesus' teachings reveal to us that living our best purpose-driven life now involves dying to self and the world system, and dying for our enemies.
