Purity Has More To Do With the Heart Than With How Others Interpret the Appearance

Today’s Reading: Exodus 40; John 19; Proverbs 16; Philippians 3

Exodus 40:34–38
* Consider the indwelling of the glory of the Lord in light of the indwelling of the Spirit in the New Testament.

John 19:30–37
* John’s description of Jesus’ death on the cross includes a flurry of fulfillments. This makes sense because, in his death, Christ is finishing the Father’s will.

Proverbs 16:1–6
* For a person’s ways to be pure, it has more to do with the heart than the appearance of good intentions.

Philippians 3:7–11
* Since righteousness comes by faith, anything but Christ, who is the object of saving faith, is worthless, especially status, success, and good works.
