"By Way Of Remembrance" (2Pe 3:1) - Holiness in the Bible Part 2
So when we speak about holiness, we speak of being separate in order to be able to follow God's will exclusively, and not the world's ideas of how to live. If you read some of the articles on this site already, you have certainly come across the idea of it. Our life is lived separated from the world, somewhere in the mountains. Wives and children avoid contact with the outside world as best as possible, and the sole focus of the family is Kingdom building, in every respect.
"And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues." (Rev 18:4)
Let us be specific here and collect all the aspects of a life lived apart from the world and unto God, in the multi-generational, plural marriage family:
The first and foremost goal of holiness, separation, is to live according to God's Law, for
"ALEPH. Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in the law of the LORD. Blessed are they that keep his testimonies, and that seek him with the whole heart." (Psa 119:1 -2)
Separated, we can stay undefiled from the world:
"For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away." (2 Ti 3:2-5)
