The Holiness of God

Subscribe ▼ Show Notes We saw the juxtaposition of God’s grace, mercy, and love in our study of the wrath of God in an episode just a few weeks ago. The Severity of Sin Today, as we discuss God’s holiness and majesty, we will see the severity of sin in contrast with the holiness of God. We will see that God forgives sinners of their sins, but he does not simply forgive sin. He doesn’t somehow ignore or look the other way or conclude that we are good enough based on something good or well-intended in us. Every time in Scripture, including the Lord’s prayer, that forgiveness of sin is referenced, it is the forgiveness of our sin or the sin of man rather than sin itself that is referenced. He forgives sinners through the atonement of Jesus Christ alone, based on His merit and His sacrificial conquering of sin and death alone. Holiness and Majesty of God God’s holiness is declared around His throne day and night. His holiness includes his being set apart from us and his righteousness. Majesty simply means greatness. As used in Scripture it means the greatness of God. We see His holiness and majesty in all of His traits. Our study is beginning to broaden so we can see God’s attributes in each of His other attributes as we study them each week. God is majestic and holy in all of His nature and essence.
