Is Cleanliness Practicable?

Cleanliness is much more than outward appearance. It is an all - embracing ethic of sound living. **_It is also a state of mind and heart that involves our morals and worship._**

<br></br>

However, cleanliness is a quality that belongs to and originated with the holy and clean God. He teaches to benefit ourselves by becoming holy and clean in all our ways. 

**`This is what the Lord says—
    your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel:
“I am the Lord your God,
    who teaches you what is best for you,
    who directs you in the way you should go.`**
<sub>Isaiah 48:17</sub>

In the word of God, cleanliness can be classified into four(4); they are:
1. **Spiritual Cleanliness**: This talks about everlasting life.
**`Therefore,
“Come out from them
    and be separate,
says the Lord.
Touch no unclean thing,
    and I will receive you.”`**
<sub>2 Corinthians 6:17</sub>
<br></br>
2. **Moral Cleanliness**: Is to be physically clean and free from the impunity that is sin.
**`17 So I tell you this, and insist on it in the Lord, that you must no longer live as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their thinking. 18 They are darkened in their understanding and separated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them due to the hardening of their hearts. 19 Having lost all sensitivity, they have given themselves over to sensuality so as to indulge in every kind of impurity, and they are full of greed.`**
<sub>Ephesians 4:17-19</sub>
<br></br>
3. **Mental Cleanliness**:  In **Matthew 5:28**, Jesus warned against unclean thinking when He said: **``** We should avoid defiling ouselves by entertaining unclean thoughts that could give rise to unclean, unholy speech and actions.
**`18 But the things that come out of a person’s mouth come from the heart, and these defile them. 19 For out of the heart come evil thoughts—murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, slander`**
<sub>Matthew 15:18-19</sub>
<br></br>
4. **Physical Cleanliness**: Holiness and physical cleanliness are closely linked with the word of God.
**`Therefore, since we have these promises, dear friends, let us purify ourselves from everything that contaminates body and spirit, perfecting holiness out of reverence for God.`**
<sub>2 Corinthians 7:1</sub>
we should strive to keep our body, home, and surroundings clean and tidy as much as circumstances permit.
<br></br>
Finally, cleanliness and our way of life as Christians are inseparable, for God Almighty is excellent in all His ways.
