When Christians talk about purity, it can feel restrictive, outdated, or even irrelevant, the Christian Today website reports today (August 12, 2025).
Even in church spaces, many of us grew up hearing about purity in ways that felt heavy, shame--based or impossible to live up to.
But God's view of purity is not about being perfect or prudish. It's about love,relationship, and transformation--living with a heart that's fully devoted to God. And that matters -- more than ever.
God is holy, good, pure, and sinless. He created us in His image and we were meant to reflect His nature. We strayed far from that image, and no amount of rule--keeping could restore what was lost.
That's why God gave us Jesus. Through His death and resurrection, we are given a new identity -- one we could never earn on our own. When God looks at those who are in Christ, He sees the purity of Jesus.
