Have you ever considered holiness as both a noun and an active state?

Have you really thought about what it requires- not just an active state that God confers on you when you belong to Him, but also a NOUN which describes that state?

Holy- SET APART. DEDICATED (TO SOMETHING OR SOMEONE). PURE. UNDEFILED.

If you think about your life quickly in 60 seconds- no lies, no excuses- can you apply this NOUN to how you live? How you speak? Who you choose to hang out with? How you dress yourself? Where you like to go, where you are a "regular"? What you like to watch? The way you conduct closer "intimate relationships" with the opposite sex- are you even attracted to the correct sex or are you crossing lines into forbidden territory against what God says is allowed?

What you put your eyes on, is it holy? How you look at people walking by, is it holy? When you step out in public & we see how you look, day or night, are you holy? The things you do when no-one is around but you, ARE YOU HOLY?

HOLY IS A STATE OF BEING BUT IT IS ALSO A WAY OF LIVING THAT WILL COST YOU EVERYTHING TO ACHIEVE..

So if you would be willing to go through training and extra work to gain a promotion at work, or to win 1 million dollars, recognize that Jesus Christ is above that. He is MORE WORTH the effort for you to learn about holiness and practice it, than any job, love affair, Child, marriage, money, promotion, FAME, fortune or whatever you'd be willing to sacrifice to get more of.

BE HOLY AS I AM HOLY SAYS THE LORD.

And I the servant of God say: If you are not yet holy, BE WILLING TO STEP UP YOUR GAME BECAUSE JESUS CHRIST IS WORTH IT. Amen.
