Cleansing Sins of the Flesh: The Call To Holiness
by Ps Ashish Raichur
As ministers of God, we are called to set the highest standards in every aspect of our life and reflect Christ in and through us. None of us are perfect in ourselves and can never be holy by ourselves; all we need to do is yield to His call of holiness. It is the work of His grace. Only with grace can serve Him with reverence and godly fear.
