Theme: The Beatitudes
Brethren,
How are you doing today? I trust you are well.
This week, we look at the second part on the blessedness of the pure in heart. This time, we shall be considering how we might grow in purity.
Key Learnings points are:
1. To be pure in heart means to be free from defilements. The pure heart is marked by transparency and an uncompromising desire to please God in all things. It is more than an external purity of behaviour; it is an internal purity of soul.
2. We are admonished to pursue peace with all men, and holiness without which no one will see the Lord. While the Lord cleanses us from all impurity when we come to Him, we are instructed to cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.
3. Only the pure can see God. We will see God when we ride on the finished work of Jesus Christ through His death on the Cross of Calvary. The sinless Saviour has the capacity to transform a sinful heart into a sinless life.
