God is Holy
Welcome back to the life of Shadman and the pregame for the trip. Tonight I am working on the clothes and the things I need like cash and packing. In the morning I go and prep for work and a appointment. I work all night and I got to be rested and Wednesday I pack all up and get all the ticks in place for a leave time of 8 30 on Thursday morning. I climb into a van on the morning and arrive at the airport. I check in and might go to the moa for a bit before I go in at 2 pm for the 3 pm flight. I got to get the post show ready In the morning. It is going to go on till the 23rd and you can read it all on my blog. NO EMAILS WILL BE OUT TILL AFTER THE TRIP. YOU WANT TO GET INFO ON THIS GO TO THE BLOG. I am going to try to keep you up to date on the trip.
God is Holy. Holy means 2 things as I have looked at it the last days. First it means that he is above all matter and separates from all there is and all that will ever be. The entire world is outside of God. God is not a part of this world he is outside of it. God made the world and has put it in a realm that he is not in. I mean this God is holy and separate from even time and space. For God in the here and now there is no time and no space. He is bigger than the entire world and holds space in the palm of his hand.
God is also perfect morally. God has never sinned and never will. Jesus is God so he on earth as also not sinned ever and what he did on earth was perfect. God is so perfect that he can never think any sinful thought or treat anyone with fairness. I start this study on the chacter of God because I think so many things are tied into the perfection of Holy God. When God made the world it was without sin and humans were created with no sin. For a time all was holy and perfect. In the first interactions humans made the call that they are not going to be holy thus the interaction with Holy God was no longer possible. God is so perfect he will not ever make sin ok. God has never made a mistake and that makes you not a mistake. If you read this you were made perfect till you sin. One sin makes you not ok in the Lords eyes. God must in holiness punsh you and ban you forever from him. Forgiveness is not just given to you Gods perfection had to be meant. If He is Holy it means he is not allowed to see you as a sinner. He cannot interact with people that are not holy and perfect. Look at this and one might think he is not able to ever see God and that is partly right.
Do you know that humans will never fully see God in heaven. If you saw him in your flesh you would burn up and die. Some have seen God and they did not really come away all happy but they are broken and nothing after they see the holiness of God. Moses in the first time he sees God he is afraid because God is holy
Exodus 3
And he said, “Here I am.”
5 Then He said, “Do not draw near this place. Take your sandals off your feet, for the place where you stand is holy ground.” 6 Moreover He said, “I am the God of your father—the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.” And Moses hid his face, for he was afraid to look upon God.
Not Moses hid his face from God. If he looked at God he was a toast.
Here is when God show Moses his goodness.
Ex 33 17 So the LORD said to Moses, “I will also do this thing that you have spoken; for you have found grace in My sight, and I know you by name.”
18 And he said, “Please, show me Your glory.”
19 Then He said, “I will make all My goodness pass before you, and I will proclaim the name of the LORD before you. I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.” 20 But He said, “You cannot see My face; for no man shall see Me, and live.” 21 And the LORD said, “Here is a place by Me, and you shall stand on the rock. 22 So it shall be, while My glory passes by, that I will put you in the cleft of the rock, and will cover you with My hand while I pass by. 23 Then I will take away My hand, and you shall see My back; but My face shall not be seen.”
God does not show his holy face to Moses because he is Holy. Gods goodness comes by but not his face.

6 In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, high and lifted up, and the train of His robe filled the temple. 2 Above it stood seraphim; each one had six wings: with two he covered his face, with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew. 3 And one cried to another and said:
“Holy, holy, holy is the LORD of hosts;
The whole earth is full of His glory!”
4 And the posts of the door were shaken by the voice of him who cried out, and the house was filled with smoke.
5 So I said:
“Woe is me, for I am undone!
Because I am a man of unclean lips,
And I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips;
For my eyes have seen the King,
The LORD of hosts.”
6 Then one of the seraphim flew to me, having in his hand a live coal which he had taken with the tongs from the altar. 7 And he touched my mouth with it, and said:
“Behold, this has touched your lips;
Your iniquity is taken away,
And your sin purged
Isaiah also saw the Lord and his holiness. One thing I see is the Lords angel singing holy holy holy to him all the time. They do not even look at his face. I also see the person here thinking in his sin he is ruined. He had to be cleaned in the place before God. God cleans him up because he is a sinner and God will never talk to a sinner. Or will he? Jesus was God and he talked to many sinners and they did not die.
I am sure of this God is holy and we worship him alone and fear him because of that
