What is Holiness and why is it Important?

Holiness is a lifestyle of separation from self-rule to kingdom-rule. It is important because holiness reveals a people dedicated to God. Holiness is a marker of kingdom life. Read 1 Peter 1:15. Is this really doable? How? If holiness is a lifestyle of separation from self-rule to kingdom-rule, what are some ways this concept might apply to modern-day believers? Why did Peter tell the early Christians, “Keep your conduct among the Gentiles honorable” (1 Peter 2:12, ESV)? How can you apply this in your context today? Why is it important for disciples of Jesus to stand in contradiction to the culture of the land? What is at stake if we don’t? The early church sought to win people to the kingdom, not by violence, but by service to the kingdom. What would that look like today? What areas of your life still need to transfer fully from self-rule to kingdom-rule? Full kingdom blog: https://www.bendchurch.org/post/a-theology-of-kingdom-life
