GREETINGS to this great community, welcome to my blog. Truly our God is a holy God, even any blurt user can really testify, unless if you're not his worshipper. Just listen to the little things I have to say.

Let me take some reading from the book of(REVELATIONS 4:8) Says,"Holy, Holy, Holy, is the Lord Almighty”.
The word Holy means sacred, set apart, revered, or divine and yet none of those words is adequate to describe the awesome holiness of our God.
Of all the attributes of God, holiness is the one that most uniquely describes Him and in reality is a summation of all His other attributes. The word holiness refers to His separateness, His otherness, the fact that He is unlike any other being.
It indicates His complete and infinite perfection. Holiness is the attribute of God that binds all the others together.
That God is holy means He is endlessly, always perfect. And He is standard for us His perfection as well. “Therefore you are to be perfect, as your Heavenly Father is perfect,” Matthew 5: 48.
That's why we need Christ. Without Christ taking the place for us and dying for our sins, we would all fall short of God's holy standard.
Since God's first concern for His universe is its moral health, that is, its holiness, whatever is contrary to this is necessarily under His eternal displeasure. To preserve His creation, God must destroy whatever would destroy it. When He arises to put down iniquity and save the world from irreparable moral collapse, He is said to be angry. Every wrathful judgment in the history of the world has been a holy act of preservation.
The holiness of God, the wrath of God, and the health of the creation are inseparably united. God's wrath is His utter intolerance of whatever degrades and destroys.
Thankfully, the Christian will never have to experience God's holy wrath poured out. Through Christ's death and resurrection , the penalty for our sins was paid and we were imputed (credited) with Christ's righteousness.
Now, when God looks on us, He sees Christ's perfect holiness. Hallelujah!! It is only in this that we can hope to stand in the presence of the pure, perfect, Holy One of Israel.
