    I Will Not Give To God Anything That Costs Me Nothing Series

    Contributed by Jeremiah Menyongai on Oct 2, 2016
    based on 2 ratings
     | 106,584 views

    In order to be pure in heart we must understand: 1) The deed of adultery (Matthew 5:27), 2) The desire behind It (Matthew 5:28), and thereby achieve: 3) The deliverance from it (Matthew 5:29-30).
