Description
God's command is, "Be holy, for I am holy." But as victims of sin's "guerrilla warfare," Christians are often prone to give up the fight, or at least to compromise with sin in its more difficult forms.
Why do we so rarely experience holy living? The central issue confronting us, says Jerry Bridges in The Pursuit of Holiness, is that Christians fail to understand their own responsibility for holiness. "If we sin," he writes, "it is because we choose to sin—not because we lack the ability to say no to temptation. We are not defeated; we are simply disobedient."
Whether you're continuing a long and serious quest in the practice of holiness, or have never really thought about it, the principles given here will serve as an impelling challenge to obey God's call.
