Bible Question:
Yesterday (previous Sunday) during the morning service, a song led by the worshipper titled "Revival of Holiness". (I have never heard of such concept/term) The message of the lyric is asking God to revive believers' holiness and the holiness of the heart. It seems to me the lyric is talking about believers' "backsliding". I want to ask: 1/ What is the teaching in Bible concerning "revival"? Can it be applied to Holiness? 2/ In what aspect(s) does the Bible teach about Holiness (I know one of the concepts of which is "to set apart as holy") for believers? Thank you for your help. Shalom Azure |
Bible Answer: Hi Shalom, Because there's not just a plain answer to your question I hope I can shine some light. It is good for you to read and study up on this for yourself, hear are some scriptures, and just to get a better understanding of the praise song what are some of the words, how did it go? Ques. 1/ Yes revival can be applied to holiness revive(quicken) is keeping our spirit man renewed Psl 51:10 Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me. 11 Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me. 12 Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit. Col 3:5-15 Mortify therefore your members ... Revive me’ read throughout Psalm 119:25;37;40;50;88;93;107;149;154;156;159 2 Cor.4:16 For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day. Quest. 2/ Teaching on Holiness Priests and Levites are holy because they have been "sanctified" by consecration (Exodus 29:1; Leviticus 8:12,30). A Nazirite is holy because he has separated himself unto the Lord (Numbers 6:5). Above all, Israel, notwithstanding all its sins and shortcomings, is holy, as a nation separated from other nations for Divine purposes and uses (Exodus 19:6, There is a higher holiness that is spiritual. God calls man to a holiness resembling His own (Leviticus 19:2). God who, being Himself ethically holy, esteems justice, mercy and lowly piety more highly than sacrifice (Hosea 6:6; Micah 6:6-8). Saints" have a separation from the world and a consecration to God. Just as Israel under the old covenant was a chosen race, so the Christian church becomes a holy nation (1 Peter 2:9) 1 Pet.1:15 But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation |
