“O Lord, who may abide in your tent? Who may dwell on your holy hill? Those who walk blamelessly, and do what is right, and speak the truth from their heart..” Ps 15:1-2

The Lord is holy, and if we want to dwell in His presence, then we too must be holy or set apart.  We cannot engage in the behavior of the world and think that we will be acceptable in God’s presence. While Jesus came to save us from sin and cleanse us from all unrighteousness, it is up to us to accept that gift and to continually live it out.  God has made it much easier for us to approach him, but we still must do what we need to do to approach Him properly.
