Above all the Lord is calling us to be holy

Samuel Acevedo
(Audio: Spanish)

SUMMARY: The Lord is calling us to be holy, above all else. This means that we must give our hearts to God and let Him transform us from within. True holiness is much more beautiful than an external approach, but it is also much more difficult. Religion can serve as a hindrance to true holiness, and Satan's most effective deception is to convince us that we can be religious without being holy. God's role in making us holy is to rescue us from our slavery to sin, and to bring us into His kingdom through the blood of Christ. Our role is to follow Him and let His light shine through us to a world in darkness.

God's plan for Boston and New England is for the world to discover Him through His people. Holiness is necessary to have intimacy with a holy God, and it is a process that involves making decisions to prefer God over our own desires. The Holy Spirit helps us in this process, expanding the horizons of holiness in our minds and hearts. Holiness brings peace, wisdom, and identity, and it is worth the cost. The speaker invites anyone who wants to receive Christ to pray with them.


Pastor Roberto Miranda has been transmitting a series of messages scrutinizing how to live according to the times we are living. And an inescapable answer that we hear from the Lord is this, let us be holy. God is calling us, this is inescapable, above all else that the Lord may ask of his people, above all the Lord is calling us to be saints.

This morning my brothers, we are going to explore two questions. First, what does that mean? to the truth what God is challenging us to when he calls us to be saints. Second, how is that done? how do we, if anything, to be holy. Just those two questions we're going to explore this morning and we're out of here.
