We need holiness
In Deuteronomy we’re told—Deuteronomy 4:24, “For the Lord thy God is a consuming fire, even a jealous God.” My friend, you’re not going to play around and get very far with God. That’s the reason that there’s so much that’s phony today in our churches. And there’s so much that’s phony today in Christian service. My friends, I want to say it kindly, but I want to say it: You’re not serving God unless you’re letting Him cleanse and purify your life. We’ve forgotten this matter of holiness today, and we need a little bit more of it in our churches.

About Dr. J. Vernon McGee
John Vernon McGeewas born in Hillsboro, Texas, in 1904. Dr. McGee remarked, "When I was born and the doctor gave me the customary whack, my mother said that I let out a yell that could be heard on all four borders of Texas!" His Creator well knew that he would need a powerful voice to deliver a powerful message.
After completing his education (including a Th.M. and Th.D. from Dallas Theological Seminary), he and his wife came west, settling in Pasadena, California. Dr. McGee's greatest pastorate was at the historic Church of the Open Door in downtown Los Angeles, where he served from 1949 to 1970.
He began teaching Thru the Bible in 1967. After retiring from the pastorate, he set up radio headquarters in Pasadena, and the radio ministry expanded rapidly. Listeners never seem to tire of Dr. J. Vernon McGee's unique brand of rubber-meets-the-road teaching, or his passion for teaching the whole Word of God.
On the morning of December 1, 1988, Dr. McGee fell asleep in his chair and quietly passed into the presence of his Savior.
