What does the Bible say about living a holy life?

Answered in 3 sources

The Bible commands believers to live a holy life as a reflection of God's holiness, as stated in Leviticus 20:7-8.

Living a holy life is a biblical mandate for every believer, as it reflects the character of God Himself. In Leviticus 20:7-8, the Lord explicitly instructs His people, 'Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be ye holy; for I am the Lord your God. And ye shall keep my statutes, and do them: I am the Lord which sanctify you.' This call to holiness implies a commitment to fully devote oneself to God’s standards and to separate from the sinful practices of the world. Holiness in our daily lives includes moral integrity, obedience to God's Word, and a passionate pursuit of glorifying Him in all we do. It’s through this commitment to holiness that believers show the transformational power of the gospel and demonstrate their identity as God’s chosen people.
