Scripture Ref: Exodus 3:5; Romans 1:4; II Corinthians 7:1Topic: HollinessNotes:- Christ was sinless, holy; His purpose for us is holiness- Ted Haggard scandal- Americans don't know what holiness is; morality is not an obligation- People have embraced a faith that saves but does not change- Deep into situational ethics, no moral absolutes- True holiness works together with love, not mean-spirited demand- The world sees the hypocrisy clearer than we do- Repentance affirms the ideal (I know I've sinned and know what I need to be and am sorry)- I don't just want to get to heaven, but to hide away in Jesus- Prayer to be less transaction (what I can get) and more transformation- Story of two brothers (success/failure)- Story of encounter with daughter; apology- God is after honesty, not perfection
