What is Holiness in the New testament?
Holiness is not necessarily what you do. God's Word reveals what holiness is in the new covenant. Hebrews 12;14-15 says, 'Follow peace with all men and holiness without which no man shall see the Lord: Looking diligently (unto Jesus) lest any man fail of the grace of God! Holiness before God is depending on the finished work of Christ: our lifestyle should be a fruit of this! This tallies with the same thought Paul expresses in Colossians 1:22-23, '...Holy, Unblamable and unreprovable in his sight: if thou be not moved from the Hope of the Gospel (Christ)'. Jesus is our sanctification- 1 Corinthians 1:31. When you came into Christ you became the sanctified- 1 Corinthians 6:10! As long as you believe Jesus shed his blood, independent of your good works, Heaven is sure for you! #Epignosis #GreaterGlory
