DOINGS AND HOLINESS, ANY LINK? 3

"Never harm or cheat a fellow believer in this matter by violating his wife, for the Lord avenges all such sins, as we have solemnly warned you before. GOD HAS CALLED US TO LIVE HOLY LIVES, NOT IMPURE LIVES. Therefore, anyone who refuses to live by these rules is not disobeying human teaching but is rejecting God, who gives his Holy Spirit to you" 1Thess. 4:6-8 NLT.
Since to be holy, God did not only impute His nature into us but also called us to live holy lives (Practice holy living). Anyone who therefore live in despite of this principle or teach against this principle of abstinence or technically encourage indulgence rather than abstinence despises or rejects not man but God Himself. And if a man rejects God by the way he lives, where does the salvation he professes to have stand?
O comrade, all these are written for us that the word of God might transform our lives. Submit to the truth of God's word and you will in the end be glad you did.
Shalom.
