Lance,
while nothing creaturely is the measure of God's holiness, by revelation
we
are drawn into fellowship with God and therein are "introduced" to the
truth
and nature of God's holiness, the need for our holiness, and the gap
between
what we are and what we are supposed to be. This is not a natural process
or a case of natural knowledge, however "religous". Only by grace are we
admitted to intimacy with the holy God (ie., only through faith); once
admitted however, we are confronted with God's holiness and our "cognitive
dissonance" concerning it.
Does this help?
Victor

Lance,
it was a blessing to finally meet you and to see the good stuff you are
doing in that city. I've been reading and listening to Victor Shepherd.
WOW!
What a great thinker with such a pastoral heart. Something i aspire to
be.
I have a question! In relation to understanding God's holiness, Dr.
Shepherd
says, "God's holiness means that God can't be measured or assessed by
anything other than himself." I understand, but if this is true, which I
believe it is, how can we learn about God or measure if we are actually
learning about him?
Would love to hear your thoughts and make this dialogue a regular thing.
