Holiness

[richanderson107]

This is truly what God (REQUIRES) of us, His Children. He has been taking me deeper into His Word and has given me Heavenly understanding that I've never had before. Now I would like to impart what Our Lord has given me-To you.
Our Heavenly Father IS HOLY, and He requires the same character from us. This life is not a game, and God has a ZERO-TOLERANCE policy when it comes to sin. Grace can only come to us through repentance and after, Into Holiness.
