Leviticus 20:7

who saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given to us in Christ Jesus before times eternal,

Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.

And be kind to one another, tender hearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you.

If therefore there is any exhortation in Christ, if any consolation of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any tender mercies and compassion,

Then the King will tell those on his right hand, ‘Come, blessed of my Father, inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world;

with all lowliness and humility, with patience, bearing with one another in love,

because it is written, “You shall be holy; for I am holy.”

that you no longer should live the rest of your time in the flesh for the lusts of men, but for the will of God.

This is what Yahweh who made you, and formed you from the womb, who will help you says: “Don’t be afraid, Jacob my servant; and you, Jeshurun, whom I have chosen.

Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called children of God.

For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared before that we would walk in them.

Having therefore these promises, beloved, let’s cleanse ourselves from all defilement of flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.

Love is patient and is kind. Love doesn’t envy. Love doesn’t brag, is not proud,

Depart from evil, and do good. Seek peace, and pursue it.

He has shown you, O man, what is good. What does Yahweh require of you, but to act justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God?

For you are a holy people to Yahweh your God, and Yahweh has chosen you to be a people for his own possession, above all peoples who are on the face of the earth.

Elisha said, “Hear Yahweh’s word. Yahweh says, ‘Tomorrow about this time a seah of fine flour will be sold for a shekel, and two seahs of barley for a shekel, in the gate of Samaria.’ ”

Be therefore imitators of God, as beloved children.

May the God of peace himself sanctify you completely. May your whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Flee from youthful lusts; but pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.

Listen, my beloved brothers. Didn’t God choose those who are poor in this world to be rich in faith, and heirs of the Kingdom which he promised to those who love him?

For this is the will of God, that by well-doing you should put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:

Finally, all of you be like-minded, compassionate, loving as brothers, tenderhearted, courteous,

I will take you to myself for a people. I will be your God; and you shall know that I am Yahweh your God, who brings you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians.

Let your Kingdom come. Let your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

Flee sexual immorality! “Every sin that a man does is outside the body,” but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body.

Therefore don’t be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.

that he might present the assembly to himself gloriously, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without defect.

Not that I have already obtained, or am already made perfect; but I press on, that I may take hold of that for which also I was taken hold of by Christ Jesus.

yet now he has reconciled in the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and without defect and blameless before him,

Put to death therefore your members which are on the earth: sexual immorality, uncleanness, depraved passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry.

according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, in sanctification of the Spirit, that you may obey Jesus Christ and be sprinkled with his blood: Grace to you and peace be multiplied.

We love him, because he first loved us.

You shall not do as they do in the land of Egypt, where you lived. You shall not do as they do in the land of Canaan, where I am bringing you. You shall not follow their statutes.

Get up! Sanctify the people, and say, ‘Sanctify yourselves for tomorrow, for Yahweh, the God of Israel, says, “There is a devoted thing among you, Israel. You cannot stand before your enemies until you take away the devoted thing from among you.”

Joshua said to the people, “You can’t serve Yahweh, for he is a holy God. He is a jealous God. He will not forgive your disobedience nor your sins.

A highway will be there, a road, and it will be called “The Holy Way”. The unclean shall not pass over it, but it will be for those who walk in the Way. Wicked fools shall not go there.

“Listen to me, you who follow after righteousness, you who seek Yahweh. Look to the rock you were cut from, and to the quarry you were dug from.

Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect.

But now, being made free from sin and having become servants of God, you have your fruit of sanctification and the result of eternal life.

Don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God.

So then, let’s follow after things which make for peace, and things by which we may build one another up.

not in the way of service only when eyes are on you, as men pleasers, but as servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart,

I exhort Euodia, and I exhort Syntyche, to think the same way in the Lord.

and have put on the new man, who is being renewed in knowledge after the image of his Creator,

For our exhortation is not of error, nor of uncleanness, nor in deception.

that each one of you know how to control his own body in sanctification and honor,

but just as he who called you is holy, you yourselves also be holy in all of your behavior;

who was foreknown indeed before the foundation of the world, but was revealed in this last age for your sake,

But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God’s own possession, that you may proclaim the excellence of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.

but in the hidden person of the heart, in the incorruptible adornment of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in the sight of God.

Let him turn away from evil and do good. Let him seek peace and pursue it.

Beloved, don’t imitate that which is evil, but that which is good. He who does good is of God. He who does evil hasn’t seen God.

He who acts unjustly, let him act unjustly still. He who is filthy, let him be filthy still. He who is righteous, let him do righteousness still. He who is holy, let him be holy still.”

and you shall be to me a kingdom of priests, and a holy nation.’ These are the words which you shall speak to the children of Israel.”

You shall be holy to me, for I, Yahweh, am holy, and have set you apart from the peoples, that you should be mine.

Joshua said to the people, “Sanctify yourselves; for tomorrow Yahweh will do wonders among you.”

Let still be my consolation, yes, let me exult in pain that doesn’t spare, that I have not denied the words of the Holy One.

Tell them, ‘The Lord Yahweh says: “In the day when I chose Israel, and swore to the offspring of the house of Jacob, and made myself known to them in the land of Egypt, when I swore to them, saying, ‘I am Yahweh your God;’

As the Gentiles heard this, they were glad, and glorified the word of God. As many as were appointed to eternal life believed.

even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and without defect before him in love,

In everything give thanks, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus toward you.

But we are bound to always give thanks to God for you, brothers loved by the Lord, because God chose you from the beginning for salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief in the truth,

seeing that his divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and virtue,

All who dwell on the earth will worship him, everyone whose name has not been written from the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb who has been killed.

For I am Yahweh your God. Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be holy; for I am holy. You shall not defile yourselves with any kind of creeping thing that moves on the earth.

“Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, ‘I am Yahweh your God.

“Speak to all the congregation of the children of Israel, and tell them, ‘You shall be holy; for I, Yahweh your God, am holy.

I said to them, ‘Each of you throw away the abominations of his eyes. Don’t defile yourselves with the idols of Egypt. I am Yahweh your God.’

Put on therefore, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, a heart of compassion, kindness, lowliness, humility, and perseverance;

For this is the will of God: your sanctification, that you abstain from sexual immorality,

For God called us not for uncleanness, but in sanctification.

Follow after peace with all men, and the sanctification without which no man will see the Lord,
