Holiness Is a Habit

Posted on November 10, 2015 by Matt Jury under J. C. Ryle

Holiness is the habit of being of one mind with God, according as we find his mind described in Scripture. It is the habit of agreeing in God’s judgment, heating what he hates, loving what he loves, and measuring everything in this world by the standard of his word.

J. C. Ryle, Holiness (Carlisle, PA: EP Books, 2011), 34.

Life Is Worship

Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name; worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness. (Psalm 29.2)
