The law identified precepts of moral purity. Failure to follow God’s commands led to uncleanness and reproach. We know what sin is because of the law.
Jesus takes it even further. He requires a thought life of moral purity. He condemned adultery of the heart.
Whereas moral impurity brings reproach, moral purity brings honor. A morally pure mind is a strong mind that is clearer in its thinking and has a closer relationship with God.
Jesus said, “Blessed are the pure in heart (thinking) for they shall see God.” [Matt. 5:8]
