A Call To Holiness

Summary

The sermon explores Ephesians 4:17-24, emphasizing a call to practical holiness rooted in growing wisdom, understanding, self-control, and following Christ. It contrasts the former Gentile way of life characterized by vanity, ignorance, and unrestrained desires with the new life in Christ marked by righteousness, humility, gentleness, patience, and love. Holiness is not merely about abstaining from sin but about actively pursuing a transformed life through renewing the mind and putting on the new self. The message stresses that true holiness is defined by who we love and follow, not just by what we avoid.
