How can we be made pure according to the Bible?

Answered in 1 source

We are made pure through faith in Christ and the cleansing power of His blood (Revelation 1:5).

The biblical teaching on purity emphasizes that true purification cannot be self-generated but is an act of God's grace through Christ. Revelation 1:5 states, 'To him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by his blood.' This indicates that the cleansing we need to stand before God comes solely from the sacrificial death of Jesus. It highlights the essential Reformed view of total depravity and the need for divine intervention to attain purity. This idea reinforces that believers, while possessing a new nature, still battle indwelling sin, yet find assurance in the complete sufficiency of Christ's redemptive work to purify them completely.
