Why is having a pure heart essential for charity?

Answered in 1 source

A pure heart is essential for charity because it purifies our motives and enables sincere love in our actions.

The concept of having a pure heart is integral to practicing true charity, as illustrated in the teachings of 1 Timothy 1:5. A heart shaped by God's grace is necessary for genuine love, as it is only with a pure heart that we can love others unconditionally. The Holy Spirit's work transforms our hearts so that we can faithfully embody the love that Christ demonstrated, ensuring that our actions are not just outward expressions but stem from inner purity and sincerity.
