Afterwords: Only if we are holy . . . .

• Only if we are holy will we respond to persecution with love, forgiveness and courage 

• Only if we are holy will we respond to betrayal even by those closest to us without betraying the Lord through sin 

• Only if we are holy will we be: loving spouses, wise parents, obedient children, true friends, victorious workers, faithful Christians

• Only if we are holy are we truly pure, truly joyful and truly free 

• Only if we are holy will we go to heaven
