There are some things that God cannot do. For example, God cannot lie (Titus 1:2). He can’t do anything that conflicts with His holy character and nature. What God is, determines what God does. Since He is holy (cf. Leviticus 11:44; 1 Peter 1:16), all of His attributes share in that perfection.<\/p>\n
As Christians, let’s look at what this fact means to us on a practical level. As a holy God, He is perfect in His righteousness, justice, truthfulness, and faithfulness.<\/p>\n
1)<\/strong> His perfect righteousness<\/strong> assures us that we can fully yield to His will because He’ll always do what is right. In Genesis 18:25 – NKJV we read, “Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?”<\/p>\n 2)<\/strong> His perfect justice<\/strong> means that God will be unquestionably fair. Our works will ultimately determine our eternal destination (Matthew 25:31-46; cf. Ecclesiastes 12:14).<\/p>\n 3)<\/strong> His perfect truthfulness<\/strong> assures us that we can take Him at His word. Numbers 23:19 – NKJV says, “God is not a man, that He should lie, Nor a son of man, that He should repent. Has He said, and will He not do it? Or has He spoken, and will He not make it good?”<\/p>\n 4)<\/strong> His perfect faithfulness<\/strong> tells us that God will never let us down. We read, “His compassions fail not. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness” (Lamentations 3:22-23 – NKJV).<\/p>\n Brethren, we can have absolute confidence in our righteous, just, truthful, and faithful God “ because He is holy!
