  • WHO IS PURE IN HEART? Only those who have completely given their hearts to Jesus, so that he alone rules in them. Only those who do not stain their hearts with their own evil, but also not with their own good. A pure heart is the simple heart of a child, who does not know about good and evil, the heart of Adam before the fall, the heart in which the will of Jesus rules instead of one’s own conscience…. A pure heart is pure of good and evil; it belongs entirely and undivided to Christ; it looks only to him, who goes on ahead.
  • They will see God whose hearts mirror the image of Jesus Christ.
  • “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God. ” Matthew 5:8
  • Who shall ascend the hill of the LoRD? And who shall stand in his holy place? Those who have clean hands and pure hearts, who do not lift up their souls to what is false, and do not swear deceitfully. They will receive blessing from the LoRD, and vindication from the God of their salvation. Psalm 24:3-5
