The Beatitudes-Pure in Heart, Part Two

“Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.”
Matthew 5:8 KJV

“Blessed [anticipating God’s presence, spiritually mature] are the pure in heart [those with integrity, moral courage, and godly character], for they will see God.
Matthew 5:8 Amplified

In this article we are going to only look at the concept of Pure in Heart

Pure in Heart Definitions
Greek, Katharos-clean, pure, clear innocent
What is separated (purged), hence clean because unmixed with undesirable elements. Free from the contaminating influences of sin. Free from corrupt desire, free from sin and guilt. Integrity, moral courage, godly character. Single minded devotion.

Need God’s Help
It should be clear by the definitions that none of us can live with any sort of pure heart without the grace of God. It is vain to try to be a person with a pure heart on your own strength.

Practical Application
Bobby and I discuss how pure in heart is walked out in everyday life. It is something that has to be practiced on a regular basis with God’s help and ultimately it becomes whom you are, a person with a pure heart.

If you never try to walk with a pure heart and be consistent you will not be transformed.

The End Result
The end result is you will SEE GOD. In the next podcast we will talk about what the means. Hint-you will see the Hand of God in your life.
