As obedient children, do not be conformed to the former lusts which were yours in your ignorance, but like the Holy One who called you, be holy yourselves also in all your behavior; because it is written, “You shall be holy for I am holy.”
– The Apostle Peter
1 Peter 1:14-15
Thank you, Pilgrim, for sharing this precious jewel from the Lord.
The tragedy we see today, is not only church-goers, but so-called pastors, are not conforming to their lusts in their ignorance. They are conforming to their lusts willfully. Thus willfully refusing to be holy. Thus, they do not truly love the Lord they claim to “love”, for He said “If you love Me, keep My commandments” (Jn.14:15)
Let all true children of God take heed to His word.
