Matthew 5:8
A principal part of the Jewish religion consisted in outward washings and cleansings: on this ground they expected to see God, to enjoy eternal glory: but Christ here shows that a purification of the heart, from all vile affections and desires, is essentially requisite in order to enter into the kingdom of God.
(from Adam Clarke's Commentary, Electronic Database. Copyright © 1996, 2003, 2005, 2006 by Biblesoft, Inc. All rights reserved.) "See God" means to posses the things of God. It is by accepting Christ as our Lord and Savior and the gift of the Holy Spirit that we are able to have a clean or pure heart.
Is there a study guide along with"Know the Bible in 30 Days"?

Christians, does the Great Commission (Matt 28:18-20) still apply and still matter today? This is a follow up of my first question.
