2. The Spirit of Holiness

Rom 1:4 And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead:

Every Christian should begin to show forth God's holiness. Their choice of attire, the company that they keep, and the conversation that they allow, should all show forth God's holiness.

Luke 1:74-75 That he would grant unto us, that we being delivered out of the hand of our enemies might serve him without fear, In holiness and righteousness before him, all the days of our life.

Rom 1:3-6 Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh;
