What Does Holiness Do?
Words to ponder from Oswald Chambers -
"God is not some eternal-blessing machine for people to use, and He did not come to save us out of pity - He came to save us because He created us to be holy.
Atonement through the Cross of Christ means that God can put me back into perfect oneness with Himself through the death of Jesus Christ, without a race of anything coming between us any longer.
Never tolerate, because of sympathy for yourself or others, any practice that is not in keeping with a holy God.
Holiness means absolute purity of your walk before Christ, the words coming out of your mouth and every thought in your mind -- placing every detail of your life under the scrutiny of God Himself.
Holiness is not simply what God gives me, but what God has given me that is being exhibited in my life."
