“O worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness: fear before Him, all the earth.” Psa. 96:9. “Holiness becometh Thine house, O Lord, for ever.” Psa. 93:5.
“Holiness is the activity of [God’s] nature in its own delights” (JND). Holiness must be maintained in the assembly or it will cease to be an assembly. Truth, all the truth (John 16:13), has been entrusted to the Church. It is responsible to be “the pillar and base of the truth.” 1 Tim. 3:15 JND. May we be faithful in keeping it.
