Why Is Holiness Important?

1 Peter 2:9-10

“Holiness” can be a confusing word. We think of it as describing how we should think and act. That is not wrong. But the root of behavior is the depth of our dedication – our set-apartness – to God. He has called us to be a set-apart people in order to display His character to the world. We are His priests, a holy (dedicated) people. That’s the point and the importance of holiness.

Questions for further thought:
1. How do you think you’re doing (in general) as a priest for God?
2. What area (or areas) do you most need to work with God on? 

​Challenge: In our world, marketing is everything to a brand. A recent challenge I have asked myself is “Am I a good marketing tool for Jesus?”.  Ask yourself this same question.
