Holiness

Holiness isn't some nebulous thing. It's a series of right choices. You needn't wait for some holy cloud to form around you. You'll be holy when you choose not to sin. You're already free from the power of sexual immorality - it's just that you aren't yet free from the habit of sexual immorality. That is, until you choose to say, "That's enough! I'm choosing to live purely!"
