THE POWER OF THE CROSS

The power of the Cross and Grace empowers you to live holy lives apart from your good works and good behavior.

Because holiness depends on Jesus first not on our performance.

Holiness is already imparted into us and the nature of it causes it to manifest and produce practical holiness.

2 Peter 1:2 - "Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord, as His Divine Power has given to us all things pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue, vs. 4 by which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust."

The more you realize who you are, the more you start living out who you are. But if you are forced into holy behavior by threats of hell and disapproval from God or the Church then holiness that you go into is false and is based on control and of darkness.

"We don't preach obedience, we don't preach holiness, we don't preach performance - we preach position in Christ because as you have a revelation of that righteousness will flow from your spirit, obedience will flow from your spirit, holiness will flow from your spirit." - Ryan Rufus

Holiness has to do with where you are seated. That is what holiness is - where you are seated in Christ. Living holy is simply living from the place where you are seated in Him. When you know where you are seated and its where the throne of grace is. Then grace will empower you to live holy lives. Sin cannot stop God's grace. In fact, holiness is a privilege we manifest from the divine nature of God.
