Called to Holiness

God has called us to be His holy people! We are to be set apart, distinct, different from the world surrounding us. God Himself is holy! He is in a class by Himself! And what makes God holy is His perfections. He is perfect in every way. And He sets the standard of right and wrong. We are to be 'holy as He is holy.' To do so, we must stop compromising by conforming to our old way of life. We are now new creations in Christ Jesus. We must seek to reflect God's holiness in every area of our lives. This however is a process, not something we obtain overnight. Each of us should carry the sign, 'Under Construction!' for indeed we are. We must be careful not to thwart the process by substituting outward religiiosity for inward heart change. We must not develop a 'holier-than-thou' attitude for none of us can live up to the standard. God has set the bar high! We are called to be 'holy as He is holy!'
