Listen "Holiness: The Why, What, and How"
Episode Synopsis
No matter the cost, no matter the difficulty, no matter the alienation and ostracization, no matter the suffering it will cause, the holy man does what his Lord says to do. Today’s passage looks at not only the why of holiness, but also the what and the how. Sermon Outline:I) The Why of HolinessII)The What of HolinessIII)The How of Holiness Discussion Questions:The message begins by connecting Reformation Day to holiness. How does this connection help reframe our understanding of “justification by faith alone”?Holiness is both a gift and a requirement — that you are “saved by faith alone, but not by a faith that is alone.” How can this tension between grace and holiness be understood and applied in daily Christian life?In today’s culture, holiness is often viewed negatively as “judgmental” or “intolerant.” What practical steps can Christians take to pursue holiness without falling into self-righteousness or snobbery?The message describes holiness as obedience to God “no matter the cost.” How do modern distractions, pressures, or relationships challenge that kind of total obedience today?The passage concludes that true holiness depends on the work of the Holy Spirit through the “ordinary means of grace.” How can believers more intentionally structure their lives around Scripture, prayer, and worship to grow in holiness?
