About this ebook

What is Holiness? Is it a title we give to religious leaders or special religious movements? Is it an expression to describe the extreme righteousness and purity of God and people? Or is it simply a vague, ethereal term we use to express the nature of someone or something? The Bible states that because God is holy, people must be holy, and without holiness, no one will see God. Such statements should compel us to explore this topic and give it a high priority in our lives. In this book, the author attempts to provide us with a working definition of holiness and how it applies to our lives. He explains holiness as a relational term as opposed to a behavioral term such as righteousness and shows how it should characterize not only our relationship with God but all relationships in God’s creation. Finally, the author explores the various characteristics of holiness, such as its beauty, power, discipline, and peacefulness.
