概要

Knowledge is a good thing. "Elementary," as the detective Holmes says.

However, it can be used in a bad way, especially when it comes to our testimony to the world. Sometimes we come across as "holier than thou." Like Paul states in 1 Corinthians 8:1, "Knowledge puffs up while love builds up.

If you're reading the Word at all, from Genesis to Revelation, we're called to be holy. It doesn't take "brilliant deduction" to realize that as followers of Jesus, we can't just live like we did before salvation.

It's called, to use a theological term, "being sanctified." It's the day to day allowing the Holy Spirit to purify us and grow us in our "being Jesus with skin on."

Now, when those who aren't followers of Christ see us, even if we're walking in His love, they can easily be offended and accuse us of thinking we're better than they are. However, if we are living our lives in such a way that they "see our good works and glorify the Father in heaven," then their accusation is an indication they are being drawn by the Holy Spirit and feel conviction.

So, how do we live holy and not "holier than thou?" Let's find out.
