so whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God. 

1 CORINTHIANS 10:31

The Bible consistently speaks of the pursuit of holiness in a corporate context rather than individual efforts.

In him the whole building is joined together and rises to become a holy temple in the Lord. And in him you too are bing built together to become a dwelling in which God lives by his Spirit.    Ephesians 2:21-22

We are called to live lives to be an inspiration, to be made holy, useful to the Master, prepared to do any good work.
