What does the Bible say about a clean heart?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that no one can claim to have made their heart clean; only God can cleanse sinners.

According to Proverbs 20:9, the question arises, 'Who can say, I have made my heart clean?' The answer is that no one can make their heart clean or pure from sin. As stated in Isaiah 1:5-6, our hearts are fundamentally sick and spiritually depraved from birth. The Scripture asserts that 'the whole head is sick and the whole heart faint,' emphasizing that no sinner can achieve purity on their own. Ultimately, it is God alone who can cleanse a sinner through Christ's atoning sacrifice.
Scripture References: Proverbs 20:9, Isaiah 1:5-6
