Holiness

Pastor Bill Bush · Nov 7, 2022

Drawing from Ezekiel 43 and Hebrews 12, Pastor Billy argues that God's foundational house rule is absolute holiness, and that because Christ's righteousness has been imputed to every believer, Christians are called to stop merely professing faith and start living it. This means stripping off every weight that slows us down — whether distraction, hurt, or outright sin — and running with endurance by keeping our eyes fixed on Jesus, the One who endured the cross for the joy of rescuing us.

Drawing from 1 Peter 1:13–2:3, Pastor Bill Bush challenges believers to embrace being 'set apart' — the true meaning of holiness — rather than letting suffering, frustration, or worldly desire 'set them off' onto a path away from God. Because Jesus paid for our salvation with His own blood, we are called to respond not with force or self-preservation but with disciplined love for one another, guarded speech that flows from a pure heart, and a deep, daily craving for God's Word. This set-apart life is not earning God's favor but living out the calling we have already been given — and it is the only path to real, lasting hope.
