We don’t work for our holiness. We work from His holiness.
We will never do enough to earn a right standing before God; our good works will never make us holy.
We have a right standing with God only because Jesus Christ is our Savior. Upon salvation, Christ’s righteousness is imputed unto us. We are clothed in His holiness. It’s all through Him, not of our own merit. (Romans 3:19–31, 2 Timothy 1:8–10, Ephesians 2:1–22)
By grace. Through faith. In Christ alone.
And now, as redeemed children of God, we are no longer slaves to sin! Neither do we bear the impossible burden of being perfect in and of ourselves and our own efforts. (Romans 6:1–23; 7:7–25)
The Spirit of God is in us, changing us, transforming us, molding us into Christ’s image. We abide in Him and progressively become more and more like Him. As we mature and grow in Christ, we do the good works He has called us to. (Titus 3:3–8, Ephesians 2:10)
Because of our relationship with Christ, because of His holiness working through us, we bear the fruit of righteousness that, when dead in our sin, we never could’ve produced on our own. (John 15:1–17)
We don’t work for our holiness. We work from His holiness.
