Psalm 24 v 3 Who shall ascend into the hill of the LORD ? Or who shall stand in his holy place ? ( obviously the Lord Jesus is now ) verse 4 He that hath cleans hands and a pure heart ; who hath not lifted up his soul , unto vanity , nor sworn deceitfully.
I was speaking with someone today of the importance of holiness , and that we need to maintain what we touch with our hands , they scoffed at it . Then I read this verse later confirming to me the Lords will . Yes our hands are sensitive to spiritual things . Apostle Paul said lay no hands on anyone suddenly, so you don't partake of another's sins . Paul said lift up holy hands to God ! Many things can defile us and make us unclean , like touching corpses, and other things written about in the law . Also is hand shaking a good thing ? With just about anyone? It says let your may be nay and your ye be ye , anything more is evil , something to think about I don't use the custom of hand shaking , as I can often tell of a person's spiritual condition by doing so and I decided to not participate in it . Most people are reasonable about it .
