1350A: The Grace of Holiness (Part 2)
We have been instructed to “love not the world, neither the things that are in the world.” Everything we reach out and touch that does not draw us closer to God’s heart is violating His desire for us to be separate. While the world is reaching out for things and for thrills, the believer is to be reaching out to God for strength and for wisdom and for spiritual blessings even at the cost of material gain. There are, it seems, two kinds of holiness. There is “positional” holiness and “possessional” holiness.
