As obedient children, do not be conformed to the former lusts which were yours in your ignorance, but like the Holy One who called you, be holy yourselves also in all your behavior; because it is written, “You shall be holy, for I am holy.” (1 Peter 1:14-16)

THE WAY GOD’S CHILDREN BEHAVE Studies in 1 Peter

Imitating the character of our Father

We must begin with an obedient attitude.

“As obedient children…” … in which you formerly walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, of the spirit that is now working in the sons of disobedience. (Ephesians 2:2) Can you mark a time in your life when you made the transition from a self-directed life to a God-directed one?

We must lay aside the practices of the past.

Do not be conformed to your former lusts And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect. (Romans 12:2) Have we put our past lives behind us? Do we seek to live a new life enlightened by the truth of the Lord?

We must make God the standard of comparison. Be holy as He is holy!

Israel was holy by calling. “For you are a holy people to the Lord your God; the Lord your God has chosen you to be a people for His own possession out of all the peoples who are on the face of the earth. (Deuteronomy 7:6) Israel was holy by conduct. ‘For I am the Lord your God. Consecrate yourselves therefore, and be holy; for I am holy. (Leviticus 11:44-45)

The church is holy by calling. to the church of God which is at Corinth, to those who have been sanctified in Christ Jesus, saints by calling, with all who in every place call upon the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, their Lord and ours: (1 Corinthians 1:2) The church is holy by conduct. “Therefore you are to be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect. (Matthew 5:48)

As He is holy! –All too often we compare ourselves to others when we ought to be comparing ourselves with God. In all your behavior! –We cannot carve out an hour or two a week for “holy” living and then spend the rest of our time doing as we wish.

God seeks children who want to be like Him in everything! Only when we strive for this lifestyle have we appreciated our true calling as children of God!
