“He chose us in Christ before the creation of the world, to be holy and blameless in His sight!” Ephesians 1:4
“God did not call us to be impure, but to live a holy life.” 1 Thessalonians 4:7
“God has saved us, and called us to a holy life!” 2 Timothy 1:9
Every follower of Christ is called to a life of holiness. This is not a suggestion, but a command. Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ has redeemed us from the pit of sin and Hell, and has set us apart for His own purpose. We are to be a people marked by . . .
a deepening desire for holiness of heart,
a growing hatred for sin, and
a fervent pursuit of righteousness.
Therefore Every aspect of life, from the most mundane tasks to the highest spiritual pursuits–should be done to the glory of God.
Let us ever strive to live a life worthy of the gospel.
And Let us put to death the sins that so easily beset us.
Let us seek to be more and more transformed by the renewing of our minds, into the image of Jesus.
“Just as He who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do;
for it is written: Be holy, because I am holy.” 1 Peter 1:15-16

Something to ponder:
The poorest saint that ever died in a ghetto, is nobler in His sight than the richest sinner that ever died in a palace. God does not look at riches, titles, education, beauty, or anything of the kind. There is only one thing that God does look at, and that is the immortal soul. He measures all men by one standard, one measure, one test, one criterion–and that is the state of their souls. (J.C. Ryle)
