Summary

Holiness has always been God’s desire for His people. In this Daily Hope, Pastor John S. Dickerson shares from Leviticus 19:2, where God says, “You must be holy because I, the Lord your God, am holy.” In the Old Testament, holiness was expressed through animal sacrifices and priestly rituals that pointed to humanity’s sin and God’s perfection. But through Jesus—the Lamb of God and our eternal High Priest—we now have direct access to the Father without temple sacrifices. Pastor John explains that holiness is no longer about earning salvation; it’s our response of gratitude for what Christ has already done. If you want to live a life that reflects God’s character, this episode will inspire you to walk in His holiness and grace every day.
