LET US EXALT THE HOLINESS OF GOD AS IT IS DEMONSTRATED IN HIS HOLY WORD [45:54]. a. IN ITS PERFECT PERFORMANCE. Ps. 105:42, Titus 1:2 – His promises are sure. Ps 12:6, 119:140 – Wicked people hate His word because it is pure. b. BY CONTENDING EARNESTLY FOR ITS PURITY AGAINST CORRUPTING INFLUENCES IN THE CHURCH. 2 Cor 2:14-17 – We don’t peddle God’s word. We present it as is, and we to leave it to Him in the face of the swine who would trample it. 2 Cor 4:1-5 – If we are to be holy, we must avoid those who pervert the Bible for their own gain. They teach error and avoid truth. Their identity is blasphemous to God and to the faith.

“ Summary, Part 2 ” 2. EXALT THE HOLINESS OF GOD’S NAME [24:26]. His name stands for who He is. a. LET US PRAY THAT GOD’S HOLY NAME WILL BE EXALTED. In this day and age, don’t take the constant use of “OMG” lightly. It is sinners neutralizing His name. b. EXALTING THE HOLINESS OF GOD’S NAME WILL EXCITE OUR PRAISE. Ps 99:3 – We would do well to contemplate His largeness. c. EXALT THE HOLINESS OF GOD’S NAME, WHICH COMMANDS OUR THANKS FOR HIS SAVING GRACE. d. EXALT THE HOLINESS OF GOD BY NOT PROFANING HIS HOLY NAME. Lev 22:32 – Don’t make His name common. Remember that our tongues tell on our hearts. e. EXALTING THE HOLINESS OF GOD’S NAME ENCOURAGES THE CONFIDENT APPROACH OF HIS PENITENT PEOPLE INTO HIS PRESENCE TO EXPERIENCE HIS CONDESCENDING, REVIVING GRACE. Is 57:15 – He gives grace to the humble. f. IT INCITES THE PRAISE AND GLADDENS THE HEART OF HIS SEEKING PEOPLE (1 Chr 16:10). 3. EXALT THE HOLINESS OF GOD’S WORKS AND WAYS [35:36]. a. EXALT THEM WITH ROBUST WORSHIP, BECAUSE HE IS THE REDEEMER OF HIS CHOSEN PEOPLE. Rev 15:3-4 – They praised Him while He poured out judgment on the wicked. But do we see ourselves as brands brought out of the burning?

“ Summary, Part 1 ” We continue with IV. CLOSING EXHORTATION TO SAINTS: IF YOU WOULD PROVE YOUR ARE HOLY, REGARD AS HOLY WHAT GOD REGARDS AS HOLY, and move on to B. IF YOU WOULD PROVE THAT YOU ARE A SAINT, YOU MUST REGARD GOD AS HOLY. Holiness means separation and consecration. 1. LET US EXALT THE HOLINESS OF GOD’S PERSON [starting at 4:46 of the audio]. Holiness is essential to God’s person. Without it, there is no God. Is 6:1-4 – This passage is almost unfathomable despite its description. Note Isaiah’s response in v. 5: it convicted him of his unholiness. But in verses 6-7, God extends mercy and forgiveness to Isaiah’s confession, and Isaiah responds to that with service. a. EXALT GOD’S HOLINESS AS REVEALED IN HIS ETERNAL SELF-EXISTENCE. Rev 4:8 – He is the Alpha and Omega. Nothing created Him; He created everything. b. EXALT GOD’S HOLINESS BECAUSE IT IS INCOMPARABLE. Ex 15:11, 1 Sam 2:2 – There are no other gods; they are just figments of men’s minds. c. EXALT GOD’S HOLINESS BECAUSE HE HATES SIN. He will even use the wicked to judge His own people. Ps 5:5 – He hates the sinner who sins.
