Value of real holiness

1 Pierre 1:2 (NEG79)

2 et qui sont élus selon la prescience de Dieu le Père, par la sanctification de l'Esprit, afin qu'ils deviennent obéissants, et qu'ils participent à l'aspersion du sang de Jésus-Christ: Que la grâce et la paix vous soient multipliées!

I beg you to notice and carefully consider the value which God sets upon real holiness, since the three persons [the Trinity] are represented as co-working to produce a church without spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing. Those men, who despise holiness of heart, are in direct conflict with God. Holiness is the architectural plan upon which God builds up his living temple…Nothing is beautiful before God but that which is holy.1

Charles H. Spurgeon
