“Sin is cosmic treason. Sin is treason against a perfectly pure Sovereign. It is an act of supreme ingratitude toward the One to whom we owe everything, to the One who has given us life itself. Have you ever considered the deeper implications of the slightest sin, of the most minute peccadillo? What are we saying to our Creator when we disobey Him at the slightest point? We are saying no to the righteousness of God. We are saying, “God, Your law is not good. My judgement is better than Yours. Your authority does not apply to me. I am above and beyond Your jurisdiction. I have the right to do what I want to do, not what You command me to do.”
― R.C. Sproul, The Holiness of God
Chapter 1
Nature of Man's Condition
Our Common Ancestors listened to Satan and chose to rebel against the I AM. Disobedience came at a cost a thousand years without lust, pride or any form punishment. Humanistically speaking, lead to 5000 plus years of selfishness and tyranny. Biblically speaking, Faith from Abel to John the Baptist had to be given to them.
Who is like you, O Lord, among the gods? Who is like you, majestic in holiness, awesome in glorious deeds, doing wonders? Exodus 15:11 Moses could have never sung this according to the means of the flesh.
In holiness God is more clearly seen than in anything else, save in the Person of Christ Jesus the Lord, of whose life such holiness is but a repetition.
Charles Spurgeon
What is Sovereignty? Sovereignty is the Establishment of just punishment's and reward's. Within the limits of its borders. The civil and criminal laws are based on moral principles taught and practiced. Whatever the principles are. It will effect how people live.
GOD is Sovereign
God is not a mere eternal or random creature born on a planet called heaven.
HIS knowledge is not fallible or limited to the past. LORD does not change His mind.
Without Him there is no Law of Order or the existence of the Good Word.
"The LORD has established His throne in the heavens; and His sovereignty rules over all".
His rule is benevolent and good: Oh, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgments and unfathomable His ways!"
Romans 11:33,36 (NASB)
God is Holy
Can man see God and live? Without God's mercy man cannot see Him and live.
Son of Amoz was given a vision by the Living Lord and he heard this.
"Holy, holy, holy is the LORD of Hosts; His glory fills all the earth."
Isaiah 6:3b Berean Study Bible
The Word Glory comes from the greek O.T bible. The Hebrew Old Testament uses the word robe.
