There must be a divorce between you and sin, or there can be no marriage between you and Christ.

Holiness has never been the driving force of the majority. It is, however, mandatory for anyone who wants to enter the kingdom.
– Elisabeth Elliot –
Holiness of heart and life. This is not the perfection of the human nature, but the holiness of the divine nature dwelling within.

Listen, I’m against sin. I’ll kick it as long as I’ve got a foot, I’ll fight it as long as I’ve got a fist, I’ll butt it as long as I’ve got a head, and I’ll bite it as long as I’ve got a tooth. And when I’m old, fistless, footless, and toothless, I’ll gum it till I go home to glory and it goes home to perdition.
– Billy Sunday –
I cannot see how any man deserves to be called “holy,” who willfully allows himself in sins, and is not humbled and ashamed because of them.
– JC Ryle –
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 … [and to make us] holy in speech … in actions … in everything.
– Leonard Ravenhill –
Holiness is nothing less than self-giving love. More than conceptual, this love is tangibly self-offering, self-dispensing, and self-emptying. It is the essence of biblical discipleship.

For the past ten years God has enabled me to keep a perfect, unbroken purpose to serve Him with my whole heart. No temptation has swerved that steadfast purpose. “HOLINESS TO THE LORD” (Exodus 28:36) has been my motto. My heart pants after Him and, as I seek Him in fervent, patient, believing prayer and in diligent searching of His Word, He is deepening the work of grace in my soul.
– Samuel Logan Brengle –
May God so fill us today with the heart of Christ that we may glow with the divine fire of holy desire.
