CAN SOMEONE BE HOLY?

Bride of Christ, a chosen generation, a royal priesthood and a holy nation.

There is much confusion concerning holiness, righteousness, entire sanctification and victory over sin

The confusion stems from the fact that many Christians have been indoctrinated with false doctrines and have been told lies about what God expects from His people and what God's power can do in their life. 

Many of those who fill the big cathedrals each week are presented with a self-defending message since they are often told that they need to be more godly, but that achieving true godliness, holiness, righteousness or sanctification here on earth is an impossibility. 

People are told that Christ has made them a new creation, and yet they are told they will continue to sin until they die. However, according to the Scriptures true believers are empowered by God to live a life of true holiness, free of sin.

God commands us to be holy as he is holy. 

1 Peter 1:15-16

 But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation;

Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy. 

Think of what Jesus said:-

Matthew 5:48

Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.

How perfect and holy is God? We are COMMANDED to be perfect as He is perfect. 

1 John 3:3 

And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure. 

Every person who has hope in Christ purifies himself to the extent that Jesus is pure. 

Whoever claims to live in Him MUST walk as Jesus did and live like He lived, that's why the Bible says we should be imitator of Christ 

1 John 2:6 

He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked. 

Ephesians 5:1

 Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children

Don't you know RIGHTEOUSNESS and HOLINESS is Jesus' Character and without Holiness no man shall see the Lord( Hebrews 12:14)

Run away from wolves who are lying to you that no Joseph, Elijah, Enoch, Job, Deborah, Dorcas character of today.

Many will tell you no one is righteousness? 

Was the servant of God Job not righteousness? Of course YES!!!

Job 1:1 

There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil.

Was Enoch not holy, righteous and really pleased God in that God took Him, was found no more for God took Him away that he should never taste death?

Genesis 5:24

 And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him. 

Hebrews 11:5 

By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he PLEASED God.

Don't be deceived bride of Christ. We are children of God and have power to overcome the world just as Jesus did

1 John 5:4-5

For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith. Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?

1 John 4:4

 Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.

Lets run from preachers holding human doctrines to speak lies since they are of world

1 John 4:5 

They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them.

And pray for Spirit of discernment that we would be deceived.

1 John 4:6

 .................Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.

*****LETS RIGHTEOUSNESS AND HOLINESS BE OUR CHARACTER*******
