The Temple had HOLY vessels, utensils, a holy place & the holy of holies.
QUESTION: What act of good works or will did the vessels, utensils of sanctuaries do to be called holy?
ANSWER: None! They were purified by being anointed with oil [the oil was a foreshadow of the Holy Spirit] this anointing set apart/sanctified & made the vessels & utensils holy.
Ex 40:9 And thou shalt take the anointing oil, and anoint the tabernacle, and all that is therein, and shalt hallow it, and all the vessels thereof: and it shall be holy.
When a believer places their faith in Jesus's sin atoning sacrifice & resurrection. Christ baptizes/anoints the believer with His Holy Spirit.
At the moment of anointing the believer is: Saved/justified= Judicially declared righteous, sanctified & becomes holy all in ONE anointing.
It's a God given position Paul refers to many times as "in Christ".
Once saved/justified = Judicially declared righteous by a sovereign God. The believer is also sanctified = separated/set apart, for a holy purpose/work (Eph 2:10).
We are not holy because of any work we do. We are holy because Jesus bought/took our sin & all it's due judgments. He anoints us with His Holy Spirit (a gift Acts 2:38 & 10:45), forgiving ALL our sins (Eph 1:7, 4:32, Heb 9:12) Christ imputes His righteousness onto the believer (Rom:4:6, 22 & 5:17) & gives them the gift of eternal life (Rom 6:23). Gifts are given & not earned/worked for.
All praise, glory & honor belong to our great God & Savior, Jesus.
