Also, you can never be Holy. Holiness is only a path to becoming Holy. GOD is the ONLY holy one. "The Holy ONE of Israel".
Context and congruencey is very important when teaching biblical principles.

Where did you get your doctrine that you can never be holy? Look again at what the Apostle Peter wrote to the saints.
1:14 As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance:
1:15 But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation;
1:16 Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy. 1 Peter 1:14-16 1 Peter 1:14-16
This is what the God of the Bible requires. Men say "not so Lord!"
There is not one verse in all of scripture that says the saints are never able to be holy. Our holiness is
OF YHWH. Yet he commands us
BE YE HOLY FOR I AM HOLY.
