Because Jesus needed to teach man the way to salvation. They teach the qualities of those that reside in heaven so that we might know which qualities to possess and consequently which not to. Luke 6-20: "Blessed are you who are poor, for the kingdom of God is yours. Blessed are you who are hungry, for you will be satisfied. Blessed are you who are now weeping, for you will laugh. Blessed are you when people hate you, and when they exclude and insult you, and denounce your name as evil on account of the Son of Man. Rejoice and leap for joy on that day! Behold your reward will be great in heaven. For their ancestors treated the prophets in the same way. But woe to you who are rich for you have received you consolation. But woe to you who are filled now, for you will be hungry. Woe to you who laugh now, for you will grieve and weep. Woe to you when all speak well of you, for their ancestors treated false prophets that way." DIFFERENT PERSON ADDED: if you believe these are the beatitudes you must be a wack job!
