God has called us to personal holiness...twenty-four/seven. Personal Holiness is a matter of both flesh and spirit. We must sanctify ourselves daily, including our conduct, speech, and attitude.

2 Cor 7:1 “Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.”

God has called us to be men and women of character and integrity. Character has to do with how we live when no one is watching.

Ps 51:6 “ Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden part thou shalt make me to know wisdom”.

Matt 23:27 “… Woe unto …hypocrites! …whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness”.

1 Cor 9:27 “But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway”.

Personal holiness, character, and integrity comes through in our relationships with others. What we are inside always comes out. We must be able to say with the Apostle Paul:

2 Cor 7:2 “...we have wronged no man, we have corrupted no man, we have defrauded no man”.

1 Peter 2:15 “ For so is the will of God, that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men”.

Titus 2:7-8 “In all things shewing thyself a pattern of good works: in doctrine shewing uncorruptness, gravity, sincerity,….Sound speech, that cannot be condemned; that he that is of the contrary part may be ashamed, having no evil thing to say of you”.
