Discussion: Holiness

1 Peter 1:13-21
-what does this verse say? 13-14
-what does it mean to be “holy”
-how can we be holy?
-what are some evil desires that we have?
-why shouldn’t we conform to these desires?
Because they are ignorant.
-why are these desires ignorant, what does God teach us about theses desires that makes us want to turn away?
-Lets look at Adam and Eve in the garden. they didn’t live in ignorance, God told them not to eat form the tree because they would die. So, are these evil desires death?
-what does it meanto live in reverent fear?
-Our hope is in God, so we should honor him and have self control.
-we were bought with a price.
