He has not only saved us from death but set us apart for life. Those who are in Christ are not only called to be holy but are given the power to be so through the death and resurrection of Jesus. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eLike the Colossians, we need to realize that as, in Christ, we already are 'holy, ' we are now to live in holy ways, setting our minds and hearts on following the pattern of Christlike living.
