Bible Message for you - April 03, 2014, Thursday - You are to be holy, for I am holy.

You are to be holy, for I am holy.

1:13		So make your minds ready, and keep on the watch, hoping with all your power for the grace which is to come to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ;
1:14		Like children ruled by God, do not go back to the old desires of the time when you were without knowledge:
1:15		But be holy in every detail of your lives, as he, whose servants you are, is holy;
1:16		Because it has been said in the Writings, You are to be holy, for I am holy.
1:17		And if you give the name of Father to him who, judging every man by his acts, has no respect for a man's position, then go in fear while you are on this earth:
1:18		Being conscious that you have been made free from that foolish way of life which was your heritage from your fathers, not through a payment of things like silver or gold which come to destruction,
1:19		But through holy blood, like that of a clean and unmarked lamb, even the blood of Christ:
1:20		Who was marked out by God before the making of the world, but was caused to be seen in these last times for you,
1:21		Who through him have faith in God who took him up again from the dead into glory; so that your faith and hope might be in God.
1:22		And as you have made your souls clean, being ruled by what is true, and loving one another without deceit, see that your love is warm and from the heart:
1:23		Because you have had a new birth, not from the seed of man, but from eternal seed, through the word of a living and unchanging God.
1:24		For it is said, All flesh is like grass, and all its glory like the flower of the grass. The grass becomes dry and the flower dead:
1:25		But the word of the Lord is eternal. And this is the word of the good news which was given to you.

If these things are clear to you, happy are you if you do them. - John 13:17

Jesus said to her, Did I not say to you that if you had faith you would see the glory of God? - John 11:40 

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the harmony of the Holy Spirit, be with you. - 2 Corithians 13:14

Be in peace and until next time.
