Hustling Holiness: The Pentecostal System Behind “Being Set Apart” – EP134

Holiness is one of the most talked about, and most misunderstood, concepts in high-control church systems. For many, it became a visible checklist of rules rather than a work of the Holy Spirit. In this episode, we walk through how holiness is taught in Oneness Pentecostalism, how it was defined under the Old Covenant, and what actually changed under the New. We unpack key Scriptures often used to support external standards and compare them with what the New Testament really says about transformation. Our goal is to help you see that biblical holiness isn’t something you achieve, it’s something God produces in you.For I am the Lord your God. Consecrate yourselves therefore, and be holy, for I am holy. - Leviticus 11:44 ESVLast Week: The Fundamentalism Problem: How Apostolic Churches Decide Who’s Really Saved - EP133 - https://youtu.be/T_Zh11KNRiYPlaylists:Full Podcast Playlist⁠ - YoutubeHoliness StandardsThe Church BuildingExamining PentecostalismThe “MOG” (Man of God)All About The MoneyAbuse In The PulpitAddressing NAYC CommentsFEAR!!!
