Holy: What does it mean?
Holiness means separation: Separation “from” – distinct, of another kind, radically different.
God is holy – none other like him Separation “to” – belonging to God and set apart for his special service – temple vessels are holy

How Can We Be Holy?
All holiness is derivative – it comes from our being in relationship with a holy God… So to be holy is to belong to God, to be set apart for God’s special use… And because we belong to this holy God, we are distinct, different, holy!
