is not in the Bible.
• Yet, cleanliness is a part of godliness!
• The Corinthians learned that there must be
a cleansing from all filthiness of the flesh
and spirit perfecting holiness in the fear of
God. 2 Corinthians 7:1
• Let us learn some things godliness demands
so we can be clean like God wants us to be. 2
3. • Clean your hands!
James 4:8; Job 17:9
• This means the
things you do are
to be pure,
unmixed with evil.

Psalm 24:3-4

5. • A clear conscience!
1 Timothy 1:19 “Cling to your
faith in Christ, and keep your
conscience clear. For some
people have deliberately
violated their consciences; as
a result, their faith has been
shipwrecked.”

1 John 2:28-29 5
