Impurity to Holiness

Ephesians 5:25-27
 25 Husbands, love your wives, just as
Christ loved the church and gave himself
up for her 26 to make her
holy, cleansing[b] her by the washingwith
water through the word, 27 and to
present her to himself as a radiant
church, without stain or wrinkle or any
other blemish, but holy and blameless.
 IMPURITY
Isa. 64:6

6 Allof us have become like one who is

unclean,
and all our righteous acts are like filthy
rags;
we all shrivel up like a leaf,
and like the wind our sins sweep us away.
 EVERY CHRISTIAN IS CALLED UNTO
HOLINESS AND RIGHTEOUSNESS IN SO
FAR AS GOD’S SANCTIFYING GRACE;
AND POWER ARE AVAILABLE TO ALL.
HOLINESS IS THEREFORE, THEN NOT A
SPEACIAL ACCOMPLISHMENT OF A FEW
SAINT BUT THE OBJECT AND ESSENCE IS
GOD CALLING FOR ALL
“ FOR GOD HATH NOT CALLED US UNTO
UNCLEANLINESS, BUT UNTO HOLINESS”
 HEBREWS 12:14
14 Make every effort to live in peace with

everyone and to be holy;without

holiness no one will see the Lord.

of the sanctified life with the following acrostic:
HUMILITY

WORLDLINESS

REALLY MADE IT COMES FROM YOUR
ACTIONS”

= UNEXAMINED LIFE IS NOT WORTH

LIVING
