1 Peter 1:16
.. because it is written, “Be holy, for I am holy.”
God's ultimate desire is to have us be together in oneness with Him. So He had to save us first, so that we can be righteous again and then to make us holy. Being holy is not the condition of joining the heaven club, rather it is a transformation which must take place in every believer. While on earth, there are many interests that will take our attention away and influence us away from holiness. So the first step is to accept that we are supposed to be holy and then to learn not to tolerate anything that influence us into unholiness.
