Chapter 2 - Holiness
Live What You Know
Purity of hearts is not maturity of Christian experience. —Duncan Campbell *
If a moral agent can know what end he aims at or lives for, he can know, and cannot but know, at all times, whether he is right or wrong. All that upon this theory a moral agent needs to be certain of is, whether he lives for the right end. —Charles G. Finney *
Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin. —James 4:17
In any love relationship, one of the primary goals is to discover the expectations of the loved one and, to the best of our ability, fulfill them. We discussed in the last chapter the tremendous importance of knowing God and what He expects of us. It is what God expects of us that will be the the object of this chapter.
