  3. Before & After Disciples pursue a life of purity… “How canI pursue purity in an impure world?” - Orozco, pg. 91

  4. Application Thoughts “God calls His followers to live pure lives in the midst of an impure world. Doing so results in authentic worship that reflects Christ to all.” - Orozco, pg. 91

  5. Quote “If we are not watchful, filth can fill our lives. In fact, slavery to sin does not occur overnight. It is a process of hoarding evil thoughts, attitudes, and actions over a long period of time.” - Orozco, pg. 92

  6. Psalm 24:3-4, Ephesians 5:3-5, 15-16 3“Who may ascend the hill of the Lord?” “Who may stand in His holy place?” 4He who has clean hands and a pure heart, who does not lift up his soul to an idol and does not swear by what is false. 3 But among you there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity, or of greed, because these are improper for God’s holy people. 4 Nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk or coarse joking, which are out of place, but rather thanksgiving. 5 For of this you can be sure: No immoral, impure or greedy person—such a person is an idolater—has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.15 Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise, 16 making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil.
