APPENDIX A: BIBLE VERSES ABOUT HOLINESS
Introduction
What is holiness and why does it matter for Christians? How can we pursue holiness in our daily lives and reflect God’s character to the world? These are some of the questions that this book will seek to answer from a biblical perspective.

To come casually with our hearts grasping tightly to the sins we cherish or to come lightly as though they are no big deal, might be like throwing ourselves onto a roaring fire with the expectation we will not perish.

and the Holy God.
What can be holy? Time, space, objects, and people—all can become holy if they belong to God. The temple in Jerusalem was considered holy space, and the objects used in worship holy objects. The Sabbaths and feasts of Israel were considered holy days or seasons. And the Israelites were called God’s holy people by virtue of belonging to him.
The New Testament uses the
