1 Peter 1:5

Deus não nos chama apenas para sermos moralmente corretos e verdadeiros, mas a sermos santos. Essa é uma realização muito alta. E observe a razão da obediência à ordem: “porque Eu Sou Santo”. Os filhos devem ser como os seus pais. Há muitos filhos que carregam, nos seus próprios rostos, evidências da sua filiação; os filhos herdam a natureza dos seus pais. Deus é santo; portanto, como Seus filhos, devemos viver vidas santas. Somos “participantes da natureza divina” (2Pe 1:4) e devemos revelar esta natureza numa vida piedosa.

C.S. Lewis said, “Aim at Heaven and you will get earth ‘thrown in.’ Aim at earth and you get neither.” In other words, what you do today because of what you believe about what happens after you die could change everything, forever.
