=Holiness an attribute of God.= "Who is like unto thee, O Lord, among the
gods? who is like thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing
wonders?"--Ex. 15:11. "And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy,
holy, is the Lord of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory."--Isa.
6:3. "And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him; and they
were full of eyes within: and they rest not day and night, saying, Holy,
holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come."--Rev.
4:8.

=God must be worshiped in holiness.= "Give unto the Lord the glory due
unto his name: bring an offering and come before him: worship the Lord
in the beauty of holiness."--1 Chron. 16:29. "Sing unto the Lord, O ye
saints of his, and give thanks at the remembrance of his
holiness."--Psa. 30:4.

=God's throne and dwelling-place.= "God reigneth over the heathen: God
sitteth upon the throne of his holiness."--Psa. 47:8. "For thus saith
the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; I
dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite
and humble spirit."--Isa. 57:15. "Be silent, O all flesh, before the
Lord: for he is raised up out of his holy habitation."--Zech. 2:13.
"Look down from heaven, and behold from the habitation of thy holiness

likewise, that they be in behavior as becometh holiness."--Titus 2:3.

thee, O habitation of justice, and mountain of holiness."--Jer. 31:23.
"Thus saith the Lord; I am returned unto Zion, and will dwell in the
midst of Jerusalem: and Jerusalem shall be called a city of truth; and
the mountain of the Lord of hosts the holy mountain."--Zech. 8:3. "The
wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the lion shall eat straw like
the bullock: and the dust shall be the serpent's meat. They shall not
hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain saith the Lord."--Isa. 65:25.

=God speaks in holiness.= "God hath spoken in his holiness; I will
rejoice."--Psa. 60:6. "Mine heart within me is broken because of the
prophets; all my bones shake; I am like a drunken man, and like a man
whom wine hath overcome, because of the Lord, and because of the words
of his holiness."--Jer.
