There is a difference between the holiness that has been imputed to a believer for all eternity and the holiness that a believer must pursue daily. The holiness imputed is a free gift of God’s grace through the work of another: Jesus Christ. Holiness that believers must now live out is our new work. What will protect us from imbalance and harm is the firm knowledge that we have no righteousness of our own. Exhortations of holiness are done in the midst of the loving grace of God
We believers are challenged through the many exhortations in God’s Word to live in godliness and holiness. The phrase, see to it, is often used. We are the overseers of our lives in the context of God’s gift of salvation in Christ. We are called to grow more and more toward the high calling we have already received.
