Remaining Pure

How can a young man keep his way pure? By keeping Your word.
Psalms 119:9 HCSB

Purity is so precious to God. He is pure, He creates pure, He gives purity in His relationship with us. However this is the one thing that mankind struggles most with returning to Him.

Not only young men need purity, older men need not start into pornography, divorced Christians should again offer purity instead of settling for a 'partner'.

Disillusionment settles on older Christians as things don't turn out the way they thought they should and disillusionment leads to sexual sin. Sexual sin is thrown at our society from all angles: freedom of homosexuality; transgenderism; multiple partners, mssturbation and it goes on. Yet God calls us to purity. Jesus Himself said: "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God." Matthew 5:8

For young men and women to keep themselves pure they do more than bless their own lives, they bless their future children and grandchildren. By making a stand they defy the powers of darkness and open a door to godliness, in fact they take territory. This is the same for older men and women who find themselves alone again after divorce.

As New Testament believers the word we obey is: abide in Me and I will abide in you. John 15:4. If we want purity we can hide in Him. He was pure and can give us His purity. Amen!
