1 Peter 1:14-16 ESV
As obedient children, do not be conformed to the passions of your former ignorance, but as he who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, since it is written, “You shall be holy, for I am holy.”
This is a declaration and command, "be holy." We are declared a holy people by the One Who calls us out of the world. We are a separated people unto the Lord.
We are commanded to be holy, living in the life of God. We are and are becoming holy at the same time as we transform through the renewing of our minds into the image of God.
