WHATEVER IS PURE / PHILIPPIANS 4:8

(KJV) Philippians 4:8

Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.

To experience God’s peace and freedom from anxiety, believers must fix their minds on those things that are true, noble, right, pure, etc. If you do these things, says Paul, “the God of peace will be with you” (Philippians 4:9). The result of allowing our minds to be occupied with the ungodly things of the world is that the joy, nearness and peace of God are lost and our hearts are no longer guarded. This verse also speaks of the influence of a person’s thoughts and attitudes on his or her life. Whatever occupies a person’s thinking will eventually work its way out in words or actions (Matthew 5:28; Matthew 15:19; Mark 7:21; Luke 6:45). Paul follows the challenge to “think about such things” by telling believers to “put into practice” (Philippians 4:9) these things. The qualities and character traits listed in this verse will lead to healthy thought patterns that will be shown in a life or moral purity and spiritual fitness.
