Historical Roots of Lent

Thursday, March 4, 2010

There is a simple yet profound command in the Bible which, in my opinion, we as Christians take far too lightly: ‘you shall be holy, for I am holy (Lev. 11:44,1 Pet. 1:16). Christian, you are to be holy because your God is holy. What is holiness? God has holiness and we potentially have holiness; ours comes from God and His standards. “Holiness is the image of God put in moral terms. Holiness is not one quality God has among others, rather it defines His character as a whole” (Daniel Heimbach).
