Passage: 1 Peter 1:13-15*

13. Therefore, prepare your minds for action; be self-controlled; set your hope fully on the grace to be given you when Jesus Christ is revealed.

14. As obedient children, do not conform to the evil desires you had when you lived in ignorance.

15. But just as he who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do;

Questions

1. Who called you (hint: see verse 13)?

 

2. What does it mean to be holy?

 

3. Is viewing web porn the act of a holy person?

 

Practical Help

It is not an easy task to be holy in all you do, but the writer says that this is our goal.

When we focus on the grace to be given us (verse 13), we get away from the evil desires that are mentioned in verse 14. This includes web porn.

Many people have faced this temptation and have overcome it with God's help and with the help of good friends who can hold you accountable. Seek out someone who can help you be holy in all you do.
