You most certainly CAN have one without the other, my good friend.
I've encountered many who LOOKED "holy" (and I hesitate to even use that term when describing outward standards, but it's our nomenclature) but were filled with unholiness.
And I have met several people who didn't ascribe to the Apostolic "look" who had more holiness in their big toe than many of the ones who looked "holy"!
That's why I questioned the term "holiness standards".
I'm still waiting for someone to show me ONE scripture where Jesus said that people would know we were His disciples by our outward appearance.
Every instance that Jesus used to describe holiness had to do with how we acted and what was in our hearts.
