What is Purity?

Lots of people have asked, "What exactly is purity?"
Well, one thing purity is not, is having sex before marriage *GASP* people can actually do that? Yes, lots of people can and will do that, and those people who do that have real strong relationships. 
Purity is not just keeping your body pure, but also your mind, actions, and words. Then how do you keep your mind, actions, and words pure? Well, to keep your mind pure you need to think good  things, not bad things. What are bad things we can think about? -- How hot that guy/girl was, I'm not saying it's bad to have a crush on a guy/girl because GOD created us to want the opposite sex. But, when you are always thinking about him/her that is when your mind becomes impure. Thinking all the time about anything or desiring anything can make your mind impure.
     Another thing that is impure is dating when you are not even old enough.  When you are thirteen do you really need to date?  I mean seriously!  Do you really expect to get married in the next three years!  
     Another one is impure words.  What are impure words?  Impure words can be, gossip, crude jokes, bragging, and anything not glorifying GOD.
We all do these things, don't deny it, confess it to GOD and get it off your chest. Let's try to stop the impurity in in this world!
