"PURITY"

A little boy was playing in the mud when he dicided to dress up his window. He took mud and smeared it all over it. When his mother saw what he had done, she made him clean it.

He cleaned the mud from the outside of the window but the window was still dirty. You see

there were hand prints all over the inside of the window.

Thats how we try to clean our selves. We work real hard on the outside to make ourselves look good but on the inside is still dirty and thats where the problem is. Our hand prints are all over the window, our hearts. Matthew, 23:25-26 tells us how the Pharisees, did it.

"Woe to you scribes and pharisees, hyporites! You clean the outside of the cup but inside they are full of extortion and self-indulegence, first clean the inside of the cup and dish, that the outside of them may be clean also." The next few verses tells them how they look. They appear beautiful outwardly, but inside are full of dead men's bones and all uncleanness.

The bible says that, "men look on the outward appearance but God looks on the heart" We can't dress up Christianity, My grandson Daniel bleieves in authentic, meaning, genuine, real. I like that about my Daniel, he is real. Thank you Daniel.

I am not preaching to you, I have learned a lot over the years by reading God's word and he tells us how to live, Remember in my other blog I told you He is the way the truth and the life, we can only know the way by following him, His word tell us how. so read it and learn. We can not find the way ourselves. For by grace we are saved through faith, not of works.

God and find joy in eternal life.
