The Power to be Holy

Aug 9, 2026    Pastor Anthony J Shetley

What does it truly mean to be holy? Is holiness simply a list of rules to follow, or is it something far greater?


In this message, Pastor Anthony Shetley explores the biblical meaning of holiness as a life of total devotion to God—set apart from sin, the world, and everything that competes for His rightful place in our lives. Along the way, he addresses one of the most misunderstood topics in Christianity: legalism.


Discover the difference between trusting Christ and trusting your own performance, why Jesus confronted the traditions of the Pharisees, and how God's grace does not lower His standard of holiness but provides the power to live it.


Through the New Covenant, God writes His law on the hearts of His people and empowers them by His Spirit to walk in faithful obedience.


This message will help you understand the relationship between grace, faith, obedience, and holiness, revealing that true obedience is not legalism—it is the joyful fruit of a heart transformed by Christ.
