The Mind of Christ (James 3:17)

In James 3:17, the wisdom from above is first pure. The word pure in English means a great many things to many people . It could mean anything from clean to untarnished or uncontaminated. However in Greek the word for pure/holy is Hagios .  This means to be set  apart for special use .  Pure is mentioned 40 times in scripture. To pursue the mind of Christ is first to pursue Purity, the likeness and nature of God. Let us take a look at scripture to see what it has to say about purity and the mind of Christ . . .
