No Shortcuts: Why Holiness Still Matters

Holiness is not a thing, a doctrine, or a set of standards. Holiness is simply the nature of Jesus Christ being produced in our lives so that He may demonstrate Himself in everything we say, do, and are. In the closing passage of 1 Corinthians 10, Paul crystallizes a simple principle that is indispensable for evangelism and discipleship for all times: revival leads to holiness, which then leads to evangelism.

The revelation of His holiness through us in everyday life is God’s plan for winning people to Jesus and making disciples. This has never been more crucial than in the challenging days we face in our culture. There are no shortcuts, and holiness matters as much now as it ever has.
