Holiness. One primary distinctive of the Wesleyan tradition revolves around a deep appreciation of the depth of transformation available by the power of the Holy Spirit. Sanctification describes a depth of relationship with God that Nazarenes believe remains available to all people. Holiness of heart and NOTES life defines this perspective, a life of total love expressed toward God and manifested in daily living toward other people. Young people often respond to the vision of holiness offered in the gospels. However, many times the developmental nature of youth presents particular challenges. While there may be moments of deep, experiential change, often young people find themselves on a journey into holiness, constantly growing in grace, moving toward that distinctive moment of entire sanctification. Premature pressure to force this issue often results in youth attempting to live the holy life in their own strength rather than yielding to the Holy Spirit’s direction. Young people can become discouraged and begin to doubt the very power available to them. With nurture and careful discipleship youth often find themselves ready to embrace all God offers at the appropriate time. Holiness also defines youth ministry. Holiness not only describes individual experience, the term also characterizes the nature of the community that seeks to be set apart to God. For youth ministers the challenge remains maintaining the same vision of holiness of heart and life within the ministry, resisting cultural temptations to be something less than what God desires.

Instead youth pastors must work to insure the practices and strategies they embrace resemble God’s direction. Whatever the cultural challenges, the values of the kingdom of God must come first in youth ministry. Missional Youth can embrace God’s missional call.

If there is a danger, it may well be the very idealism that empowers youth to see what God can do often makes young people impatient with the Church. Young people, held captive to their own idealism, may reject the Church if they feel left out or abandoned in their own efforts. Youth need to experience God’s missional call in worship to g...
Holiness. There is the pledge, the commitment, the responsibility and the obligation of each member “to strive for the advancement of this church in. holiness” The church is to be holy [Ephesians 5:27], and therefore it is incumbent upon each member to be holy! A CHURCH CAN ADVANCE IN HOLINESS ONLY TO THE EXTENT THAT THE MEMBERS ADVANCE IN HOLINESS! “Holiness” in man is “a state of heart in devotion to God” “Holiness” is “to be separated, and set apart for God, to be consecrated to God” “Holiness” is more than spiritual knowledge, more than a profession of faith, and more than the mere outward observance of a creed. THOUGH XXXXXXXX IS CERTAINLY INCLUSIVE OF THESE THINGS, IT GOES BEYOND AND IS MUCH DEEPER THAN THESE THINGS! We read in Luke 1:74-75 that we are to “serve Him in holiness and righteousness” HOLINESS INSPIRES, ALWAYS INSPIRES RIGHTEOUSNESS! “Holiness” is “the inward principle of Divine life” [Romans 8:1-5]. It is “the habit of being of one mind with God, hating what He hates, and loving what He loves” Again, A CHURCH CAN ADVANCE IN HOLINESS ONLY TO THE EXTENT THAT THE MEMBERS ADVANCE IN HOLINESS! It is the pledge, the commitment, the responsibility, and the obligation of each member to personally strive after “holiness”
