The Holiness of God
Read the summary of the Sunday sermon:
The Holiness of God gives us an insight into the unique nature of God. Isaiah has a vision of the holy God on his throne and he is changed. When we see God’s holiness we understand our selves, the world and the gospel in a whole new light.
Read: Isaiah 6:1–13
Discussion Questions:
What stands out to you most about Isaiah's vision of God's holiness? Why?
Isaiah's first response is an awareness of his own sin (vv. 5–7). How have you experienced God's holiness exposing areas of your own heart?
We often compare ourselves with other people rather than with God. How does seeing God's holiness reshape the way we think about ourselves?
After receiving God's cleansing, Isaiah willingly says, "Here am I. Send me." How does experiencing God's grace motivate obedience to God’s mission?
Is there an area of your life where God is calling you to greater holiness or repentance right now?
Isaiah's commission was difficult and unlikely to produce immediate visible success. What helps you remain faithful even when obedience is costly or discouraging?
What would it look like this week to cultivate a greater awareness of God's holiness in your daily life?
How can we encourage one another to pursue holiness without becoming legalistic?
