The Begatitudes: What’s in a Name

The Begatitudes is an "in the beginning" account of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The names of the first 12 patriarchs, from Adam to Noah, are examined according to what each name means. Each individual name reveals an aspect of the life and saving grace of Christ. Salvation did not begin with John 3:16. Saving mankind was in the heart and plan of God from the beginning of Creation. Part of the proof is hidden in the meanings of these 12 names.
