The Ten Commandments of the Law are restricted to prohibiting those acts which would be sinful. The Beatitudes explain to us how we may attain Christian perfection or grace. The Ten Commandments were given in Old Testament times to restrain wild‚ primitive people from evil. The Beatitudes are given to Christians

In December 1783‚ George III engineered the dismissal of the Fox-North Coalition‚ which he hated‚ and appointed William Pitt the Younger as Prime Minister. Pitt had very little personal support in the House of Commons and the supporters of Charles James Fox and Lord North felt that the constitution of the country had been violated.
