More Than a Holiness Theorist

When it comes to the holy life, I want to be more than a theorist, I want to be a practitioner, yes one who not only thinks and talks about holiness but one who actually participates in and proves holiness to be real. More than learning holiness, I want to live holiness.

...live holy lives, because if you don’t, you will not see the Lord.
-- Hebrews 12:14b (GWT)

Holiness Unto The LORD!

Don't Live The Kind Of Lives You Once Lived

(13) Therefore, your minds must be clear and ready for action. Place your confidence completely in what God’s kindness will bring you when Jesus Christ appears again. (14) Because you are children who obey God, don’t live the kind of lives you once lived. Once you lived to satisfy your desires because you didn’t know any better. (15) But because the God who called you is holy you must be holy in every aspect of your life. (16) Scripture says, “Be holy, because I am holy.” (17) So if you call God your Father, live your time as temporary residents on earth in fear. He is the God who judges all people by what they have done, and He doesn’t play favorites. (18) Realize that you weren’t set free from the worthless life handed down to you from your ancestors by a payment of silver or gold which can be destroyed. (19) Rather, the payment that freed you was the precious blood of Christ, the lamb with no defects or imperfections. (20) He is the lamb who was known long ago before the world existed, but for your good He became publicly known in the last period of time. (21) Through Him you believe in God who brought Christ back to life and gave him glory. So your faith and confidence are in God.
