Holiness

"Because God is holy, holiness remains the standard that all humanity must meet, yet that all humanity - save One - has failed."
(Walking in the Footsteps of Jesus, pg. 31)

That is why we have a great High Priest who has gone to heaven, Jesus the Son of God. Let us cling to him and never stop trusting him. This High Priest of ours understands our weaknesses, for he faced all of the same temptations we do, yet he did not sin. So let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive his mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it. (Hebrews 4:14-16 NLT)
