Conduct
Rev. 22:11 He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still.
Conduct based upon conception creates character. To some men life would seem to be a day of business, the goal of which is the amassing of wealth. To others life would seem to be one constant opportunity for pleasure, the intervals being filled with strenuous work in order to secure that pleasure. Whatever his conception of life may be, it determines the conduct of a man and affects all of his relationships in this world. A man will conform in character to what his conception of life. Cf. Luke 12:35-36. Let your loins be girded about, and [your] lights burning; And ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their lord, when he will return from the wedding; that when he cometh and knocketh, they may open unto him immediately.
Those in the Rev. verse above were fixed in their moral state at this point. Too late to change your moral, spiritual state as far as your relationship to the King. All believers must be glorified at this point for flesh and blood cannot enter the Kingdom. You cannot inherit in the fullest sense until you have a glorified body.
