God's Holy People - Philippians 1: 1-2

The apostle Paul God's holy servant addresses God's chosen holy people speaking with true royal authority looking to God from His holy steeple God here speaks to His very own all of those God regards as saints draped in the shed blood of Christ the righteous badge God has known The people of God are His elect chosen before the world began in faith endowed with divine righteousness God's blessing put on sinful man For this sin, God sent His beloved son to be the sacrifice our sin to atone on the cross, Jesus paid the price acceptable to God who accepts no clone God's word speaks of the holy necessity without holiness, no one shall see the Lord every unholy being God will reject make sure your sins are under His sword ("Paul and Timothy, servants of Christ Jesus, To all the saints in Christ Jesus who are at Philippi, with the overseers and deacons: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.") Philippians 1: 1-2 (ESV)

"Without holiness, no one shall see the Lord"..... a reminder that makes us shudder. Though we are God's chosen people, without being contrite over our sins and without choosing the path of righteousness, we wo't be eligible to be called God's chosen people. Great thoughts, Gordon
