Purity

Basically something that is pure is void of any admixture which could cause the slightest infection. A pure Christian is one who is void of any worldly or anti-Biblical teachings or practices which would cause them to have a divided allegiance between Christ and something else. Normally, that dichotomy would be between Christ and Satan. Whenever a Christian lives worldly or even partakes in the slightest fashion, they have become adulterated and have lost their purity until repentance and restoration takes place.
