Kept pure in all ages

What is the meaning of "pure" in Matthew 5:8, "Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God." Here "pure" is from root word, "katharos," "pure" means ethically free from corrupt desires, from sin and guilt. "Pure" is in spiritual sense, free from pollution.

I found sometime different word has same theological point, the condition to see God, compared to Hebrew 12:14, ".....and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord." Here "holiness" is from "hagiasmos." Sanctified!

The Condition to see God is this,

1.the pure in heart
2.holiness.


1 Peter 1:16, "Be ye holy; for I am holy." Here the word holy is from "hagios," in the same chapter St. Peter is writing about holiness in the heart, the holiness in the heart is called "a pure heart." After writing about holiness in the heart, in 1 Peter 1:16 previously, in supporting his point about holiness, now he stressed holiness in the heart, in 1 Peter 1:22, "...you have purified your soul.....see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently." The word pure here is from the Greek word, "katharos."

Firstly, St Peter wrote be ye holy, next he wrote that you have purified....and then ye love one another with a pure heart."

Be ye holy is equal to have a pure heart. "Purity" has equal meaning and important to "holiness!"

Having a Holy Bible or a pure Bible does not mean we have a perfect Bible! Some words are missing, this does not mean the Bible is not holy, the Bible still is the Holy Bible, a few missing words are missing, does not make the Bible to become a unholy Bible! Having a Holy Bible means having a pure Bible! Holy Bible and Pure Bible are the same meaning to me, it does not mean a perfect Bible to me! Since I believe a few words are missing or miss copied!

In Westminster Confession Chapter 1, 8 , what does "kept pure in all ages means?" What does that "pure" means actually? "Kept pure in all age" means kept holy in all ages! That is why in 2 Timothy 3:15, the Bible is called the "...Holy Scripture..."

The Bible is kept holy! Without any blemish and without spot in holiness! It means Kept holy for all ages!

Does these word "kept pure" carrying any sense of perfection, did God gave mankind a gift to have this "photocopying" power and ability, in handling down the Bible to us by human hands? Can mankind copy without error? Is there a gift like this? Copying and copying for few thousand years and copied without mistake?

You mean the word "pure" means you men copied the Bible without any copying errors, not one word nor not even one letter missing or miss copied, does it means when the person who was copying in the past does not make any careless mistake at all, 100 % perfectly copied to us by hands, robotic human hands, 100 % perfect, not even one letter was missing in the copying process for thousands of years, even totally you claimed, you said every word are copied to us, without one word missed? Does "kept pure" mean these statement? I do not think so!

I believed God preserved the Bible for us, this is miracle, and God kept it holy for all ages for us! This is what kept pure in all ages really make sense to me!

The Bible is the Word from God eternally, and the Bible is Holy and pure! So I can say loudly, by the grace of God, may I read the Bible every day. And I have a Pure Bible, I have a Holy Bible, I have the Word of God! Say this and read the Bible every day. And be a doer of the Word. And keep away from the error of Verbal Plenary Preservation, and also the theologian who taught people to believe in this false teaching.

May God bless us, to discern, is to know God, and is to see God at last!
