o grasp this with the
intellect. Just believe it, and look in simplicity and trust to
Jesus to make it all right for you.

5. _Holy in Christ._ In childlike faith I take Christ's holiness
afresh as my covering before God. In loving obedience I take it
into my will and life. I trust and I follow Jesus: this is the
path of holiness.

6. If we gather up the lessons we have found in the Word from
Paradise downward, we see that the elements of holiness in us
are these, each corresponding to some special aspect of God's
holiness: deep Restfulness (ch. 3), humble Reverence (ch. 4),
entire Surrender (ch. 5), joyful Adoration (ch. 6), simple
Obedience (ch. 7). These all prepare for the Divine Indwelling
(ch. 8), and this again we have through the Abiding in Jesus
with the Crown of Holiness on His head.

Holiness and Separation.

'I am the Lord your God, which have _separated_ you from other

and have _separated_ you from other people that ye should be
_Mine_.'--Lev. xx. 24, 26.

'Until the days be fulfilled, in the which he _separateth_ himself

His own blood, suffered _without the gate_. Let us therefore go
forth unto Him _without the camp_, bearing His reproach.'--Heb.
xiii. 12, 13.

Separation is not holiness, but is the way to it. Though there can be no
holiness without separation, there can be separation that does not lead
to holiness. It is of deep importance to understand both the difference
and the connection, that we may be kept from the right-hand error of
counting separation alone as holiness, as well as the left-hand error of
seeking holiness without separation.

The Hebrew word for holiness possibly comes from a root that means to
separate. But where we have in our translation 'separate' or 'sever' or
'set apart,' we have quite different words.[3] The word for holy is used
exclusively to express that special idea. And though the idea of holy
always includes that of separation, it is itself something infinitely
higher. It is of great importance to understand this well, because the
being set apart to God, the surrender to His claim, the d
