8 Beatitudes vs 8 Woes

The 8 Beatitudes or Blessings(being blissfully happy) tell us how to be just that by Jesus Christ Himself. He did this just before teaching of the law in Matthew 5. Then just like we're taught the blessings before the cursings, we have the woes in Matthew 23 that correspond to the 8 Beatitudes in the 5th chapter. The woes are directed at those who keep the population from being or receiving happiness. They are addressed just before the events leading up to the 2nd Advent of the mess of the world & the return of Jesus Christ following it.
