Bible verse on living holy as Christians.

Matthew 6:1-6 Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them: otherwise ye have no reward of your Father which is in heaven.

Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth:

That thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret himself shall reward thee openly.

And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.



Matthew 7:1-6 Judge not, that ye be not judged.

For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.

And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?

Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye?

Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.

Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.



Colossians 3:1-6 If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.

Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.

For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.

When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.

Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:

For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience:



Hebrews 4:13-15 Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.



Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession.



For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.







Luke 22:44 And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground.







Job 42:10 And the LORD turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends: also the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before.







Romans 10:17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God



.



John 20:26-29 And after eight days again his disciples were within, and Thomas with them: then came Jesus, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, Peace be unto you.



Then saith he to Thomas, reach hither thy finger, and behold my hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into my side: and be not faithless, but believing.



And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God.



Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.







Romans 4:19 And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sarah's womb:







Hebrews 11:16 But now they desire a better country, that is, an heavenly: wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God: for he hath prepared for them a city.



Colossians 3:12-13

[12]Since God chose you to be the holy people he loves, you must clothe yourselves with tenderhearted mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience.

[13]Make allowance for each other’s faults, and forgive anyone who offends you. Remember, the Lord forgave you, so you must forgive others.

Luke 11:41 But rather give alms of such things as ye have; and, behold, all things are clean unto you.

.If the Christian dogmas of a revengeful God, universal sinfulness, election by divine grace and the danger of eternal damnation were true, it would be a sign of weak-mindedness and lack of character not to become a priest, apostle or hermit and, in fear and trembling, to work solely on one's own salvation; it would be senseless to lose sight of ones eternal advantage for the sake of temporal comfort. If we may assume that these things are at any rate believed true, then the everyday Christian is of all creatures the most pitiful.

Women like U sponsored Jesus' 3 ministry on earth. These women heard the gospel, received salvation and some healing; they all followed Jesus but continued to work hard and remained financially resourceful.

Luke 8
Soon afterward Jesus began a tour of the nearby towns and villages, preaching and announcing the Good News about the Kingdom of God. He took his twelve disciples with him, along with some women who had been cured of evil spirits and diseases. Among them were Mary Magdalene, from whom he had cast out seven demons; 3 Joanna, the wife of Chuza, Herod’s business manager; Susanna; and many others who were contributing from their own resources to support Jesus and his disciples.

I'm sure you never read the bible but I think U could learn some lessons from these ladies. God didn't create women to be lazy, deficient and dependent on a man all her life. She can also live a resourceful life.

Saying everybody should live in convent or become a nun because they are Christians is a sign of mental laziness and cerebral apathy. Who will feed or cloth U while U waste away in convent.... gentiles?

Jesus will never tolerate such pathetic lifestyle. Luke who wrote the gospel worked as a physician while Paul worked as a tent maker while preaching the gospel. They were never a burden to anyone which is what U are advocating.
Re: 8 Important Ways We Can Live Holy As Christians. by Deepspirituals: 10:36am On May 26
Good Points .

Philippians 4 v 13

We must Derive our Strength of Living a Holy life from Gods Strength .

Two Spirits Rules this World . Holy and Evil

John 10 v 10 ,That Old Dragon is a Thief , His Mission has been to destroy God's Work , You and Me , Carnality won't make you get holy , You must be deeply Spiritual

John 4 v 24 .

Let us pray in the Holy Spirit, building us up and edifying us more into God's will and bringing it to pass in our lives.

Great examples. However, what we miss is being holy in our interaction with others especially unbelievers.

Practical ways of being holy:
1. Living peaceful and decently in this chaotic world.

2. Not stealing your bosses time at work, and working diligently for your boss

3. Not taking or accepting bribes.

4. Being kind, polite and respectful to others.

Praying and witnessing without the above is worthless and useless.
