Being holy as God is holy means accepting that our “best” won’t be good enough. Our best pales in comparison to God’s capacity. As we strive to be holy as God is holy, we must remember that this means that we are called to reflect the holiness of God that we have received by being his people. As such, we must take Jesus as the single most definitive explanation of God’s holiness. When we consider what holiness means to us in our lives, Jesus must be the standard. We do not simply imitate Jesus. We allow Jesus in live in us so that our lives reflect Him in all that we do.
