"He who is unjust, let him be unjust still; he who is filthy, let him be filthy still; he who is righteous, let him be righteous still; he who is holy, let him be holy still.

Holy Spirit's grief
"And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, clamor, and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice." Ephesians 4.30-31

All that comprise it must work together for the edification of the Church, whose Head is Jesus. If there is a strange body among the members, there will be conflict with others. Sooner or later, the foreign element will be expelled.

Work
"She seeks wool and flax, And willingly works with her hands. She is like the merchant ships, she brings her food from afar. She also rises while it is yet night, and provides food for her household, and a portion for her maidservants."
Proverbs 31:13-15
The virtuous woman is different from the others. People around her recognise the presence of the Holy Spirit in her.

Plans
“I know that You can do everything, and that no purpose of Yours can be withheld from You."Job 42:2
The faith of Job was not focused on the powerful works, but on the Creator of everything. He had a conviction inside of him that said nothing is impossible for Him.

With spiritual growth, faith in action and perseverance in the strength of the Holy Spirit, we will be able to carry out great works so that His name might be known all over the world.
