Holiness is not the result of our life with God. Holiness is not acquired!
God makes us a partaker of His Holiness when we are made His children.
Holiness is not behavior! I do not behave to be holy.
Jesus is our sanctification. I am holy because God has sanctified me. I walk in holiness because I walk in God.
Do not tell a wild fig tree to produce good figs. A wild fig tree produces wild figs. Dirt makes dirt, impure uncleanness.
"“If you are not disciplined—and everyone undergoes discipline—then you are not legitimate, not true sons and daughters at all. Moreover, we have all had human fathers who disciplined us and we respected them for it. How much more should we submit to the Father of spirits and live! They disciplined us for a little while as they thought best; but God disciplines us for our good, in order that we may share in his holiness. No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it.”
Hebrews 12:8-11 NIV
"But as he who hath called you is holy, so be holy in all that you do, for it is written," Be holy, for I am holy. ""
1 Peter 1: 15-16 NIV
How an unclean can become holy by his procedure if God does not change His nature?
"“Let the one who does wrong continue to do wrong; let the vile person continue to be vile; let the one who does right continue to do right; and let the holy person continue to be holy.””
Revelation 22:11
