The Mystery of Holiness
 

Just as he who called you is holy, you yourselves also be holy in all of your behavior, because it is written, “You shall be holy, for I am holy.” (1 Pet 1:15-16)

You are in Christ Jesus, who was made to us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption. (1 Cor 1:30)
 
[Christ] has now reconciled in his body of flesh by his death, in order to present you holy and blameless and irreproachable before him. (Col 1:22)
 
Having therefore these promises, beloved, let’s cleanse ourselves from all defilement of flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God. (2 Cor 7:1)
 
Being made free from sin and having become servants of God, you have your fruit of sanctification and the result of eternal life. (Rom 6:22)
 
I appeal to you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. (Rom 12:1)
 
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places, even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before him. (Eph 1:3-4)
 
Be renewed in the spirit of your minds, and put on the new nature, created after the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness. (Eph 4:23-24)
 
 Strive for peace with all people, and for the holiness without which no one will see the Lord. (Heb 12:14)
 
May the Lord make you to increase and abound in love toward one another and toward all men, even as we also do toward you, to the end he may establish your hearts blameless in holiness before our God and Father at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all his saints. (1 Thess 3:12-13)
 
Lord our God, through the Blessed Virgin Mary
you have shown us the example of a disciple,
who is faithful to the words of life;
open our hearts to receive your saving word,
so that by the power of the Holy Spirit
it may speak to us in our daily lives
and bring forth a rich harvest of holiness.
Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
God, for ever and ever. Amen.
 
(Masses of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Disciple of the Lord)
