Deep down, we want a God who is Holy. If God believes in goodness, kindness, generosity, and peace, then he must hate evil, stinginess, mean-spiritedness, oppression, and animosity. You can’t be for something without being against its opposite. A God who could care less about sin, evil, and corruption is no God at all—powerless against darkness—and can never be trusted to mold us into people after His image. How could he be a God who makes righteous judgments if he allows unrighteousness to flourish?

 In short, if there is a God—who truly loves us—he must not only be generous and kind; he must also be a consuming fire. 

The sermon today is titled "The God Who Is Holy." It is the seventh installment in our "Good and Beautiful God" Series. The Scripture reading is from Isaiah 6:1-4. Originally preached at the West Side Church of Christ (Searcy, AR) on October 2, 2022. All lessons fit under one of 5 broad categories: Begin, Discover, Grow, Learn, and Serve.
