Who needs holiness?

JC Ryle asks “How does the account stand between our souls and God? In this hurrying, bustling world, let us stand for a few minutes and consider the matter of holiness.” 

It is a very important matter for the follower of Jesus as the Word of God says:

Hebrews 12:14 Pursue peace with all people, and holiness, without which no one will see the Lord:

Don’t miss that...without holiness no one will see the Lord!

Over the next several devotions we will explore what holiness is and how to live a holy life but for today to define it is to say to live a pure life before God. Maybe even to say to live a life by having the same values and characteristics of God. To follow every Word of God. Now we will never be God, but He does tell us “to be HOLY for He is HOLY.”

So who needs holiness? Every follower of Jesus needs holiness!
