God's holiness is affirmed throughout Scripture, especially in Isaiah 6:3 where seraphim declare, 'Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts.'
The holiness of God is a central theme in Scripture, demonstrated in passages such as Isaiah 6:3, where the seraphim proclaim, 'Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts; the whole earth is full of His glory.' This triadic declaration emphasizes the absolute purity and separateness of God from all sin and imperfection. Holiness is not merely about righteousness but signifies God’s otherness and uniqueness above creation. God's holiness instills a proper reverent fear in those who recognize Him, prompting a faithful response of submission and worship in line with His transcendent nature.
