Webmaster, your article on practical holiness is excellent. It covers the topic from several different angles, and is very valuable.
It takes courage to love the things God loves and to hate what He hates. It takes courage to begin to see things the way they really are. All of us have dealt with hatred, but the hatred that is normally seen in life is nothing compared to the hatred people store up in their hearts against God. There is a lot of hatred against God in the church.
Many people, even active Christian workers, have the underlying attitude, "What can I get away with?" One pastor told my husband, "I can talk my way out of anything." Well, he didn't.
Real faith and real love for God is beautiful, and a heart of disbelief is ugly. That's one of the reasons I believe, because I can see the difference it makes in people's lives.
Anyway, it is a great article and I appreciate it.
