Can God be both Holy and loving? Do idols belong in
the temple of God?
We are the temple of the living God, as God himself says, ‘I
will live with these people and walk among them. I will be their God, and they
will be my people.’
The Lord also says, ‘Leave them and stay away! Don’t touch anything that isn’t clean. Then I will welcome you and be your Father. You will be my sons and my daughters, as surely as I am God, the All-Powerful.’
The Lord also says, ‘Leave them and stay away! Don’t touch anything that isn’t clean. Then I will welcome you and be your Father. You will be my sons and my daughters, as surely as I am God, the All-Powerful.’
2 Corinthians 6:16-18
Many say God’s holiness makes him judgmental, demanding a very high
moral standard. Others say if God is loving, then he won’t condemn anyone but
all will go to Heaven. Are God’s holiness and love opposite extremes?
