Exiles
You Are Holy
September 18, 2022

When trouble comes our identity is the first thing we question.

1st thing that comes to mind when you hear the word “holy”?

Holy = Moral perfection

1 Peter 1:13-16
Therefore, with minds that are alert and fully sober, set your hope on the grace to be brought to you when Jesus Christ is revealed at his coming. ¹⁴ As obedient children, do not conform to the evil desires you had when you lived in ignorance. ¹⁵ But just as he who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do; ¹⁶ for it is written: “Be holy, because I am holy.”

Kadosh – 403x’s
Genesis 2:3 —Holy Day
Exodus 3:5 — Holy Ground
Exodus 15:13 — Holy Dwelling
Exodus 19:6 —Holy Nation
Leviticus 10:9-10 – Separation of the holy & common 

Agios – 217x’s
Paul, to the Saint’s – The Holy Ones (1 Corinthians)

Khata/ Hamartia
Sin = Bad stuff we do
To miss the goal —> Image of God

Sin grabs hold of humanity and leads it in a direction God never intended by stripping away humanities set-apartness.

Kadosh & Agios – Holy or Set Apart

1 Peter 1:17
Since you call on a Father who judges each person’s work impartially, live out your time as foreigners here in reverent fear.

Phobos —> profound respect

1 Peter 1:18-21
For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your ancestors, ¹⁹ but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect. ²⁰ He was chosen before the creation of the world, but was revealed in these last times for your sake. ²¹ Through him you believe in God, who raised him from the dead and glorified him, and so your faith and hope are in God.

You are holy!
