Holy Makes Us Holy

Speaker: Rev. Thomas R. Zehnder


Scripture Focus: Isaiah 6:1-8, Isaiah 6:9-13, 1
Corinthians 14:12b–20, & Luke 5:1-11


Service Summary: God calls us to be His holy
people. Through the words of the prophet Isaiah and through his
experience in God’s presence, the Lord reassures us that in love
He forgives our sins and makes it possible for us to be holy in
His sight. In the Hebrew language, to express what we would call
a comparative word, you would say the “base word” twice—so
“holier” would be expressed “holy, holy,” and that which is the
holiest would be spoken of in the superlative as “holy, holy,
holy.” And that is what our God is! Yet He knows us and cares for
us individually. How amazing is that!
