Luke 2:41

Heart Purity By Thomas Watson "Blessed are the pure in heart , for they shall see God." Matthew 5:8 The holy God, who is 'of purer eyes than to behold iniquity' calls here for heart-purity, and to such as are adorned with this jewel, he promises a glorious and beatific vision of himself: 'they shall...

These words expressed the height to which the desires of the Lord’s disciples rose. They had seen His wonderful works, they had heard His gracious words, they had observed His perfect life, and they had contemplated His glory—as an only one with a father;—and now, Philip says to Him, “Lord, show us ...
