Hi everyone. 

We all know that if we come to Christ and our sins are forgiven we experience the peace of God, Joy, Contentment, happiness etc and if we fall into sin again the holy spirit convicts us of our sin.

Here's a reminder and some benefits of living a holy life.

# Holiness leads to a better emotional state.

(Phil 4:9)

That the God of peace will be with you.

# Holy living provides a better conscience. 

Acts 24:16

So I strive always to keep my conscience clear before God and man.

# Holiness leads to eternal blessings.

Matthew 6:20

# Holiness leads to better earthly blessings. 

1 Peter 3:10-12

# Holiness leads to better intimacy with God.

Matthew 5:8

God blesses those whose hearts are pure, for they will see God.

# Holiness leads to better ministry

2 Tim 2:21

If a man cleanses himself,  he will be be an instrument for noble purposes.

Shalom @Raymond2020

What is your definition of "Holiness" and "Holy Living", or rather how is it defined by God?

Love & Shalom

And that would also include keeping God's Holy Sabbath.....Yashua most certainly kept it....not because He was a Jew but that He always did those things that 'pleased the Father.'  Should not Christians emulate Him ?

I hear you loud and clear. Now what advice do you have for believers that work shifts, and sometimes work on the Sabbath day? The company would not understand to grant you leave on that day every week. They would push you out the door, sooner rather than later.

What if one can not “ obey the Commandments?” Are there any other options for a sinful man like myself and many other people that I   know that are “ ungodly ?”

Holy living is loving the brother and sisters like christ loved us. He died for us. So we need to be there for anyone in need. We are not to live in sin. But yield to righteousness.  Like paul said he that stole just steal no more but work with his hands that he may have to give to others in need. The new testament is full of instructions of how to walk in the truth.

I'm gonna mention a practical benefit to living a holy (set apart) life. Yesterday, as my wife and I were on a somewhat long drive, we were discussing some troubles with family members and this very subject rose to the surface.

Although we sons of God are not guaranteed a trouble free life (in fact the opposite), there are certain troubles we won't face that are built in to a sinful life of self degradation. We don't hang around in the same circles and thus aren't subject to the same sorts of troubles. Watching family members inevitably and acutely suffer the results is difficult. If you hang around in filthy refuse, you will pick up the filth and suffer the consequences. Another illustration is living in Sodom. Unless direct by God as a 'worker'--why would you wish to be there.

One of the enemies greatest delights is to see mankind degraded.
