Knowing Jesus - Mark 7
Aug 3, 2025
In this message, “True Purity,” we explore Jesus' powerful words in Mark 7, where He challenges the Pharisees' obsession with outward traditions and reveals that real purity isn’t about performance—it's about the heart. True purity comes from trusting in Jesus’ finished work, not trying to earn God’s approval through religious rituals. When we believe the gospel, God gives us a new heart—one that’s capable of seeing and knowing Him. Purity, then, is about loving God deeply, not just looking good on the outside. The good news is: we’re not defined by our failures, but by Christ’s victory. His blood makes us clean, His Spirit renews us daily, and now we can draw near to God with confidence—pure, loved, and free.
