What does it mean to you that “God did not call us to impurity but in holiness” (1 Thess. 4:7)?

  1. In reply to the question "Who would you consider holy", I have to ask how do we judge someone to be holy. In the Bible study on Tuesday evening and in worship on Sunday a common name answered was Mother Theresa. To what is that answer based? If it was solely on the fact that she did many "good works", then I would have to argue that is not an accurate statement, since many atheists, Muslims, Buddhists, etc have been known to do "good works".

  2. Amen Honey!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I consider anyone who believes the truth to be Holy or set part by God. And knowing what 'MT' confessed, she would not make my list. Jesus said ;"you will know them by their FRUIT", not fruits. We must determine what this fruit is. And since faith/believing is what separates people, I say that is what determined the holiness of a person.
