Teaching on Sunday, September 25th by Todd Miles
Personal Holiness is not being sin-free. Holiness is being set-apart, or separate from evil. This
does not mean God expects that we never sin, but rather that we are quick to confess our sins when we fail. Once we repent,
we must trust in the sufficient sacrifice of Jesus. His blood enables us to
experience complete forgiveness for our failures. This blood also made
righteousness and holiness available to us. Once we repent of something, our
standard returns to holiness.
1 John 1.8-9 says:
If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.

Do you feel holy?
Most of the time I don’t. Do you believe
you have been made holy through Jesus? The Scriptures declare you have been! We
MUST line up with what has been done in the heavenlies! we must agree on earth
with what has been done in Heaven! God has said WE ARE HOLY. LET US LIVE
LIKE IT!!!
By God’s will we have been made holy through the sacrifice
of the body of Jesus Christ once and for all!
-Hebrews 10:10
