What the New Testament Says About the Attributes of GodNäide

GOD IS HOLY. This means that God is“other than” and completely different from us. It also means that He is perfect. There is no wrong in His character or in how He thinks or acts. The fact that God is holy draws a very distinct line between Him and us: Because of our sins, we are not naturally holy.

God’s holiness has never been and never will be compromised. He did not earn His perfection—He has always had it. He is perfect, full of right character and living. He defines what is good and hates what is evil. Jesus displayed this on earth as God shows it in heaven. Jesus was the only human being to be holy, never giving in to temptation or falling into sin.
