“Be Holy, God Is Holy”

Key Verse

  “Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy” (1Peter 1:16)

Text — 1 Peter 1:13-21

Message

Dispute over paternity can be resolved through a DNA test and lay to rest such controversy. Likewise, holiness put to silence every debate on who a child of God is. God is holy and anyone who professes to be His child must possess this very nature of God – holiness. An unholy life has no resemblance to God and no usefulness to the world. 

“Be ye holy” is God’s command. Heaven is a holy place. The God of heaven is a Holy Being. The angels are holy creatures. Everything about heaven is all holiness. It is impossible to get to heaven if we die unholy. The Holy Bible clearly states, “Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord” (Hebrews 12:14).  Holiness is not optional; it is mandatory for all who desire to see God and live with Him in eternity.

To be holy simply means to be purged from inward and outward sins. Consecration, strong thirst and hunger for the experience in prayer of faith will allow God to accomplish it in your life. 

Quote

Holiness is not optional
