May the good Lord give us the right knowledge and understanding to solve all our problems

holiness and righteousness will surely exalt anyone

Poloyanabo2:
Op i get your point but physical cleaning is also next to Godliness and also appreciated by God.
That's why a menstruating woman is not allowed in to the presence of God in the OT.
even leprous people were forbidden from the temple.
And God always uses purity of garment to illustrate holiness.
Cleanliness is next to Godliness

Petersamuel8:
The cleanliness does not necessarily has to do with physical look,hair style or even shoes

It simple has to do with righteousness, you are practically unclean if you fornicate

BackllGodNaija:
Is Cleanliness Really Next To Godliness?

It certainly is, however it's not in the sense of "clean hands" (outward appearance) as the world thinks, but that of a clean heart.

The Pharisees were known to be very clean men outwardly, but the Bible says that inwardly they were "full of all uncleanliness". Matthew 23:25-27

In other words their evil deeds and thoughts of their hearts made them to be unclean, so it couldn't be possible that their outward cleanliness was next to godliness.

It's true that lot of people have lost their lives to the Coronavirus, but not every life lost of recent has been taken by the killer virus.

Some innocent lives have been heartlessly taken by some humans during this same period as well, for instance, Uwaila Vera Omozuwa who was raped and murdered by her fellow human beings.

So even if such heartless men wash their hands and body very well, after committing such an heinous act, and become outwardly as clean as the Pharisees, would their cleanliness be next to godliness?

I'm not oblivious of the fact that there's been so much apprehension in the land for the killer virus, because of the potency and speed at which it ravages human lives, however let's not be quick to forget that there's a worse death than that of our physical body, which is the death of our soul.

The Bible says, "what shall it profit a man if he gains the whole world and lose his own soul?" Matthew 16:26

So as much we fear the death of our physical body, and consequently do everything we possibly could to ensure our hands, body etc are clean, let be more afraid of the death of our soul and hence also do everything possible to keep our hearts clean. Matthew 10:28

That's the cleanliness that's truly next to godliness.

God bless Nigeria.

Cleanliness time next to Godliness. You have to be Spiritually and Physically clean for God to visit and dwell in your place.

God doesn't stay in a filthy place.
