As Ephesians 4:24 tells us, righteousness and holiness go hand and hand, for we are to, “put on the new self, created after the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness.” And this righteousness of God comes to realization only through faith in Jesus Christ and His work. It can’t be achieved by any of our actions, but only through obedience to Christ. It tells us in the 23rd Psalm that “He leads me in paths of righteousness”…but we need to follow…which is what holiness is all about. You may know it as sanctification – the deliberate decision and process of becoming holy like God…a being set apart for His purpose. (Romans 6:19) And as we follow Him, God works on our character. (Romans 5:4) All the while as we deal with our conduct…bringing it into alignment with the Gospel. (Philippians 1:27)
