I Peter 1:16

The Experience of the Sanctuary must be

Holy

“Be ye not unequally yoked together with

unbelievers: for what fellowship hath

righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?

15And what concord hath Christ with Belial?

or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? 16And what agreement hath the temple of God with

idols?

for ye are the temple of the living God; as God

hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

17Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the

unclean thing; and I will receive you.

18And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall

be my sons and daughters, saith the

Lord Almighty.”II Corinthians 6:14-18

beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all

be any virtue, and if there be any praise,

think on these things.”Philippians 4:8

from you, with all malice”

Ephesians 4:29, 31

The Experience of Sexuality must be

Holy

“Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of

Christ, and make them the members of an

harlot? God forbid.

16What? know ye not that he which is joined

to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh. 17But

he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.

18Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the

body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own

body.

19What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy

Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God,

and ye are not your own?

20For ye are bought with a price: therefore

glorify God in your body, and in your spirit,

which are God's.”I Corinthians 6:15-20

The Exhibition of Style must be Holy

“In like manner also, that women adorn

godliness) with good works.”

I Timothy 2:9, 19

which is your reasonable service.”
