In this preaching, Steve Lawson tells us about the meaning and importance of purity in the life of the Christian, focusing on the words of Jesus spoken in the sermon on the mountain?And using, as an example, Jonathan Edwards’ life, he stresses that holiness is a matter of the heart (not just of our external behavior) and that, for that very reason, we must constantly examine ourselves.
Steve Lawson is pastor of Christ Fellowship Baptist Church. This sermon was preached at the Resolved conference in 2009.

From October 1 to 5, 2012, Paul Washer, Joel Beeke, Hernandes Dias Lopes, Steven Lawson and Sillas Campos will discuss the “Foundations of the Christian Faith” at the 28th Faithful Conference for Pastors and Leaders.
In an age of confusion and error, it is important that we be firm and clear about the distinctive elements of our faith; we need a solid foundation to determine whether what we really believe is the biblical, apostolic and historical Christian faith. We need to understand what defines Christianity, what its most fundamental elements are, in order to recognize the truly Christian faith.
