'Without holiness you can not see the LORD.'Heb12:14
(1)What is holiness?
(2)how can we obtain it or achieve it in our life?
(3) can one live by the law of GOD and obtain holiness.?
The truth would be greatly appreciated.

You can't live by the Law. The Law was given to show our weakness. Christ's death on the cross fullfilled the provision of the Law. Christians live by Grace. Grace is the person Jesus. Trying to live by the law will only lead to mental bondage and unhappiness. You can't work for it. You labor only to enter into the rest brought about by GRACE.

Holiness IS living by Grace.

We Bahamians make Christianity too difficult and almost a burdensome message.

It's GOOD NEWS PEOPLE! BOL!

Christ did ALL the work at the cross. All this weeping and condemning and finger pointing is unnecessary.

In and of yourself you do not deserve salvation. Its a FREE GIFT. G_d made us righteous with his death. Period. Full Stop.

By yourself you can't continuously do right. You don't have to. You do it by GRACE. You live by GRACE.

LOL Sunny, you said it well, it's good news, pure and simple, Christ came to save those that are lost.
Let the unbeliever be unbelievers still, jeers and scoffs dont move me, I know in whom and what I believe.
Jesus Christ is Lord of MY life!

Not unique to Bahamians!

Even the Bible reference the "foolishness" of preaching! Most believe one has to STRIDE to find God. No, no, no.... He actually finds us. We are left free to accept or reject--- repent or continue running away from God.

You are right "by grace we are saved, through faith it is a gift of God, not of works...none can boast Ephesians 8:9 & 10 (i tink?)

Are you an athiest? A communist? Maybe just a plain old hater of believers? Why are you here?

Maybe you can't read. You are in "Bahamas Church Issues". Maybe you can contribute to "Bahamas Making Stew Issues".
