2 Corinthians 7:1
1Since we have these promises, dear friends, let us purify ourselves from everything that contaminates body and spirit, perfecting holiness out of reverence for God.
It simply just means this: We are given God's promises. We are given salvation and we will have eternal life in heaven! We will never die, NEVER! But, it asks us to purify ourselves from anything that contaminates body and spirit. It means staying away from sin. Like vulgarities, fights, pornography, lying, cheating and etc...
Note: The last part, 'perfecting holiness out of reverence for God.' It is perfectING and not perfect or perfected. It means we are NEVER perfect and we will never be. However, it is a daily process where we have to strive to be as holy as possible. So let us keep on going together! We shall not lose to the the devil!!! Praise God!
