I want you to want me

I need you to need me

I'd love you to love me

I'm beggin' you to beg me

I want you to want me

I need you to need me

I'd love you to love me

I'll shine up my old brown shoes

I'll put on a brand new shirt

I'll get home early from work

If you say that you love me

How did they make it

 

200,000 people diverse as any city… but they were the only Christians…

You get dropped off in some city, sexual sin is promoted and practiced…. Drugs, paganism… anything goes… and your the only Xn…. How do you not only make it but thrive?

 

1 Thessalonians says they experienced salvation with not just words but also in power… it allowed them to practice…

Holiness and no compromise.

Holiness? Sounds very antiquated in todays world… yes and lets talk ab about how to can our own rutabagas…

 

the Scriptures say, “You must be holy because I am holy.” 1 Peter 1:16 NLT

But in today's world, it sounds too simple, too naïve and too abstract. What exactly does it mean? 

 

The truth is when you truly study holiness, you might end up feeling like you are dressed up in a costume and calling yourself a Christian because the fact is you really aren't holy when you understand what it means in scripture. 

 

I believe when one looks at scripture, you understand that holiness goes beyond simply doing with the Bible says. You can obey all the commands, and still not be holy, you asked how does that work? 

Then Jesus said to his disciples, “If any of you wants to be my follower, you must turn from your selfish ways, take up your cross, and follow me. Matthew 16:24 NLT

 

Being holy goes beyond rules and regulations and cuts to the heart. Are you selfish in any of the things you choose to do or say or where you go? The truth is holiness in some sense of the word is different for me than it is for you. Yes we both confess the same Jesus and we both follow the same Scriptures and commands however he might call me to stand out in different ways in how I would I choose to do it. The question you can ask in anything you do or say, or for any motive is this is this truly selfish or is this truly godly? And then ask God to give you guidance into what to do or to say in order to stand apart and be Holy.
