THE SPIRIT OF HOLINESS.

By A. T. Jones

THE Lord is coming.

And without holiness, no man can see Him in peace.

Have you holiness?

How can anybody have holiness without 'the Spirit of holiness'?

And how can anybody have the Spirit of holiness without the Holy Spirit?

Have you the Holy Spirit?

'Do ye think that the Scripture saith in vain, The spirit that dwelleth in us lusteth to envy?'

Then, surely, with such a spirit as that, no man can see the Lord in peace.

But He says, 'A new Spirit will I put within you,' and, 'He shall . . . abide with you forever.'

He does not want the spirit that lusteth to envy to abide with you forever. Do you?

He wants His own Spirit—the Holy Spirit—to abide with you forever. Do you?

Having thus the Spirit of holiness abiding with you forever, you will have holiness.

And, having holiness, you can see the Lord in peace when He comes.

And He is coming soon. Get ready, get ready, get ready!

'Ask, and it shall be given you.' 'Receive ye the Holy Ghost.'
