3 Keypoints From: All Round Purity

  • The evidence of purity inside must be seen outside; Yet, if your purity is not on the inside, you cannot make heaven. -Matthew 5:8
  • It is when your heart is aligned with Christ that every other thing outside begins to fall in place.
  • You must study God's word daily with the intention of getting to know more of Him; Spend quality time with Him in prayers and worship.

  • “You may talk and dress like a Christian, but those things don't make you one.”

    Memorise: Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God. -Matthew 5:8
    Prayer: Father, please help me to be pure inside and outside.

  • Painfully, not every bishop, general overseer or evangelist is going to heaven, hence your standard for perfection must be Christ, not man. -Matthew 7:22-23
  • The only way to know if your spiritual leader is following Christ is by knowing Christ yourself (through your Bible) -1 Corinthians 11:1

  • “If our father in heaven is perfect and we are His genuine children, then we must be perfect too.”

    Memorise: Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect. -Matthew 5:48

  • God has no grandchildren. You're either a child of God or not. -Ezekiel 18:20

  • “When you let someone else's attitude affect your motives and zeal for God's work, remember that you won't be able to blame that fellow on the last day; as you're standing alone before God to answer for your actions and inactions.”

    Memorise: For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad. 2 Corinthians 5:10
