You Are Holy!


Hebrews 10:10-12 NLT
For God's will was for us to be made holy by the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ, once for all time. [11] Under the old covenant, the priest stands and ministers before the altar day after day, offering the same sacrifices again and again, which can never take away sins. [12] But our High Priest offered himself to God as a single sacrifice for sins, good for all time. Then he sat down in the place of honor at God's right hand.

Did Jesus sacrifice His body at the cross? Was God successful in His desire to make us Holy? These are anchors that we can trust completely since it has nothing to do with us.
The Old Testament model showed us a clear picture that man is not able to meet his end of the covenant. His ways of being holy is similar to what most religious people dry to do today. They stand up for the rest of their lives trying to figure out what else needs to be done for them to be better. They are all trap in the do more be more situation which breaks their hearts further because it seems that God is only in love with the future version of themselves.
Saints, don't be hard against yourselves. The world has done a lot of beating to you already.Should God add to those agony and pain?
God loves you.Stop measuring yourself by His word.Instead affirm who you became by what He has done for you once and for all times.
YOU ARE HOLY! HE MADE YOU HOLY!It might take you some time to digest it, but you can trust God because Jesus was the fulfillment of this truth. Receive it!

FULLY SANCTIFIED!

1 Corinthians 6:9-11 NLT Don't you realize that those who do wrong will not inherit the Kingdom of God? Don't fool yourselves. Those who indulge in sexual sin, or who worship idols, or commit adultery, or are male prostitutes, or practice homosexuality, [10] or are thieves, or greedy people, or drunkards, or are abusive, or cheat people-none of these will inherit the Kingdom of God. [11] Some of you were once like that. But you were cleansed; you were made holy; you were made right with God by calling on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God. Some of you might be tempted to read someone else's email and believe right away that the letter was for you. Verses 9 and 10 describe an  unbelievers identity. It describes who they are.The email belongs to them not ours. Before salvation that was our identity as well. We were like our father the devil. But today we are fully sanctified(holy).Yes our Behaviour is not sanctified(holy)yet.However it is heaven re...

Salvation: 1. The Narrow Gate of Grace

Matthew 7:13-14 NLT "You can enter God's Kingdom only through the narrow gate. The highway to hell is broad, and its gate is wide for the many who choose that way. [14] But the gateway to life is very narrow and the road is difficult, and only a few ever find it. Grace is like a narrow gate. It gives the non-believers a hard time to accept because the world has been trained to try its very best in everything it does.This is the world's system of success. This is the wide gate of doing more and being more that some has decided to enter in. Believers on this side of the cross has chosen to enter the narrow gate of grace that leads us not only to forgiveness and eternal life but also inspires us to live good and godly lives.
