At the outset of his Sermon on the Mount, Jesus shares with his disciples the sixth thing that by which his followers are "blessed" or happy. He states, "Blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God" (Matthew 5:8). But what does it mean to be pure in heart? And why is it such a big deal? And if I still battle sin, is it even possible for me to live a life of purity? The great blessing of  the pure in heart is that they will see God. But how can that be if no man has seen God? Keith Pond rattles the cages this morning as he looks to God's word to answer all of these questions.
