Bible Question: How can some one be pure in heart |
Bible Answer: Mat 5:8 "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God." When the Greek word "kardia," (heart), is used in a figurative sense it is a reference to your "thoughts, feelings, mind or will." Any Greek lexicon or dictionary will confirms this. To be pure in heart simply means to let everything you do outwardly before God and man flow from sincere and honest inward motives. In other words, don't be a hypocrite, which is the exact opposite of one who is pure in heart. Machaira |
