We must give ourselves wholly to holy things.

The cost of being a true Christian – JC Ryle
It costs something to be a true Christian.
It will cost us …
our sins,
our self-righteousness,
our ease and
our worldliness!
– JC Ryle –
Called unto holiness – John Calvin
The whole lives of Christians ought to be a kind of aspiration after piety, seeing they are called unto holiness.

The characteristic of holiness – Oswald Chambers
The characteristic of holiness, which is the outcome of the indwelling of God, is blazing truthfulness with regard to God’s word and an amazing tenderness in personal dealings.
– Oswald Chambers –
The holier you become – Charles Spurgeon
I believe the holier a man becomes, the more he mourns over the unholiness which remains in him.
– Charles Spurgeon –
The Holiest Person – Oswald Chambers
The holiest person is one who is most conscious of what sin is.

Evidence of a holy life – JC Ryle
People may refuse to see the truth of our arguments, but they cannot evade the evidence of a holy life.
– JC Ryle –
Saved for more than heaven – Leonard Ravenhill
Without holiness, no one shall see the Lord. Jesus didn’t die to save us from hell. That’s a fringe benefit! He died to get total occupation of us. To be holy in speech … in actions … in everything.
– Leonard Ravenhill –
When sin becomes disgusting – George MacDonald
The salvation of Christ is a salvation from the smallest tendency or leaning to sin. It is deliverance into the pure air of God’s ways of thinking and feeling. It is a salvation that makes the heart pure with the will and the choice of the heart to be pure. To such a heart, sin is disgusting.
– George MacDonald –
