1 John 2:7 ASV and 1 John 2:9 ASV

Purity seems something that is taken for granted these days. But it is something that God demands in order to enter the kingdom. The bad thing is the Bible also says "we all fall short" but as these verses proclaim only by the blood of Jesus Christ. Have you been washed in the blood? We have sung that song as a hymn of old, but have we ever thought what impact it made in our life or what impact it can make through you with the help of the Holy Spirit.
When we are stinky and dirty people don't flock to us they flee from us. When our lives are dirty how can we be the salt and light of the earth that we have bought into when we accept Jesus as our Savior. Acts 3:19 Is it time to do a 180 in your life and allow God clean you up?
