"Everything is pure to those with A PURE HEART. Nothing is pure to those who are corrupt and unbelieving , because their minds and consciences are corrupt."
Did you ever wonder why some people see the glass half full and others see the glass half empty? Why are some people optimistic and others are so pessimistic? Why is it most young children have such pure thoughts and statements, while as we get older we are more cynical and our statements are more corrupt? Why is it that we some can see the good in people, no matter their condition, while others only see the bad side of everyone. Is it a matter of the heart or mind and is it inherent in the belief system of those who belong to God? Those who are corrupt and defiled and do not believe in God find nothing pure because of their unbelief. Those who have a new heart and believe in the Lord have been given a pure heart and everything has become pure to them!
Do you know someone whose mind and conscience are polluted and defiled, they will be corrupt and unbelieving as a natural consequence. What a clear distinction between A PURE HEART, and a corrupted heart. The choice to accept the Lord into your heart has vast and known consequences, one of which is that everything will be pure because of your pure heart!
The only way you can clean up an impure heart and mind is to believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and accept Him into your heart. You will be a new person, with a new heart. Many profess to know God and later they denounce or renounce Him. It is apparent by what they do and say and their heart and mind. By being rebellious or disloyal to the Lord they are unfit and their deeds and works will be worthless and unworthy. Nothing will be pure to them because they are corrupt and unbelieving and their minds and consciences are corrupted.
If you are tired of being pessimistic and seeing the glass as half full all the time listen to the
One Truth Today. If you are never at peace and you have an empty place in your heart that can never be filled or satisfied, then there is only one way to change that. If you want to find peace on earth and in the Kingdom to come then you must be in God's will and you must have a new heart from Him. The Lord and the Holy Spirit will come in and dwell in your heart if you make the invitation. You will become a new person with a new heart and it will be A PURE HEART, because the Lord is Pure. You will become a new creature in Christ Jesus.
