Text: Ephisians 4: 21-32.
When we look at the word HOLY, Means something pure, without blemish. For instance a white apparel without stain.
It can also mean, exalted or worthy of complete devotion as one perfect in goodness and righteousness.
Can also be define as a state of been set apart from defilement.
When we consider the word HOLINESS, it refers to the state or quality of being Holy..I.e how clean something is, how pure some thing is. Holiness also mean been sanctified.
In this dispensation, majority outside there has stopped listening to Christian preachings, and their focus are on our life, what we talk about, what we wear, what kind of gathering we keep and so on. We are not save to continue to live in sin or any uncleanness, but was called unto His marvelous light.
For God hath not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness.
1 Thessalonians 4:7 KJV

Jesus christ encourage us to live with everyone with peace, and in so doing holiness should be our life style... We have forgotten that, there is little to our reward in the body of Christ, if holiness is out of our life.
"Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:
Hebrews 12:14 KJV"

As a child of God, we are expect to live a holy life.One of the fruit you should bear as a child of God is holiness.
" But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life.
Romans 6:22 KJV"
