Holiness, Part 8

Listen Later
Holiness is a daily battle
What prevents us from being holy?
  • External influences
  • Pride
  • Doubt
    • This battle takes on two forms:
    • External
    • Internal
      • We are being lied to by external influences all around us:
      • Godless society
      • Moral relativism
        • The idea that there is no absolute right and wrong.
        • Judges 17:6; 21:25
        • Pluralistic ideology
          • The idea that we’re all going to heaven, just on different paths.
          • This is somewhat related to the idea of multiculturalism when it is applied to religion.
          • Isaiah 5:20
            • Reminders:
            • Romans 12:1-2 – Don’t conform, be transformed
            • II Corinthians 6:17 – Come out and be separate
            • I Peter 1:15-16 – We CAN be holy
              • Battle – Ephesians 6:10-13
              • Ephesians 6:10 – Be strong
              • Ephesians 6:11 – Put on armor; stand firm against devil’s schemes
              • Ephesians 6:12 – Struggle not against flesh/blood
                • External battle … with Satan
                • He is an active enemy … but one we can fight
                  • James 4:7 – Submit to God, resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
