Thank you once again father God for everything in Jesus name we pray Hey, man. Thank you. Shrikumar and Good morning everyone welcome once again So this course of holiness I Just realized after Monday's class that there's one more chapter in This book on holiness actually is a very important chapter So I we will finish that today and then Monday Coming Monday week, we will talk about repentance recovery and restoration So it's it's kind of a short lesson But I want to talk about the that is next week We want to talk about the importance of repentance in the life of the believer. How important it is Both for us to walk in faith and also for us to experience the kingdom So we will talk about that next week and just understand the process of repentance and how that actually Brings us brings recovery and restoration in our lives So, yeah, we get to get into that next week and once we finish that Then we will get into Section on overcoming How do you overcome the world or how do you overcome the flesh? The world and the devil because you remember on a Monday We saw these are the three things main things that pull us down as believers, you know, God has done a wonderful work in our lives He's a holy God He's called us to a place of Holiness he has sanctified us for himself He has closed us with his righteousness. He has put us in this place Of holiness before him and Yet because we are living in this world and there is sin around us These three things flesh the world and the devil They try to pull us down And so for a believer to walk in holiness We have to learn how to overcome The flesh the world the devil and so that's going to be the last section of this course, which is the practical side, right? So now we're going to finish up this lesson The chapter 6 in this section on holiness. It's a very beautiful chapter And so I didn't want to miss it chapter 6 in The beauty of holiness. So we just to quickly review We began this whole section on holiness By saying that God is Absolutely holy Holiness is that one attribute that is being worshipped in the throne room of God The angelic beings are saying all the time holy, holy, holy This holiness of God undergirds every other facet of his being He will never say or do anything that contradicts his holiness Even his love and his goodness Is released in the context of holiness. It never happens outside of holiness We also said that His holiness adorns everything that belongs to him as holiness adorns his house Everything that means everything that is God of God or godly is holy and then we see that How we learned that God is our sanctifier. He's the one who makes us holy So he's holy. He wants his holiness to be reproduced in us and Revealed through us and he comes to do the work in our lives So he is Jehovah make a desk the Lord who makes us holy or the Lord our sanctifier so he sanctifies us and We saw that this sanctification work comes in our lives Through the cross to the word of God through the power of the Holy Spirit through God's divine discipline our lives and Of course through the people he places around us. He works that discipline So God is working that holiness in our lives But we also learned that We have our responsibility That means We need to cooperate with God To see his holiness reproduced in us so that it can be revealed in us That's kind of the essence of this first five chapters of course there's a lot more But some of the key points from these first five chapters That we've covered This is the last chapter in this section Where we're talking about the beauty of holiness and just some aspects of it as revealed especially in the Old Testament And we have mentioned this before that There are different metaphors that I used in the Bible To talk about the attributes of God So when you talk about the hand of the Lord, you're talking about his strength and power Talk about the eyes of the Lord. You talk about his omniscience Talk about the ear of the Lord. You're talking about his compassion to hear our prayer When you talk about the face of the Lord you're talking about his presence and how he looks towards us You talk about the feet of the Lord. You're talking about his place where he dwells, or is place of dominion. You talk about the mind of the Lord, you're talking about his thoughts, his wisdom, his understanding, and similarly when you talk about the beauty of the Lord, we're talking about the holiness of God. So in scripture, these different metaphors about various attributes of God, it is so interesting that the beauty of the Lord is used to refer to the holiness of God. And so we said that therefore the holiness of God should attract us to him. It's his beauty, his glory, his splendor. And so in relation to the beauty of holiness, what do the scriptures unveil to us? That's what we're going to do in this chapter. We learn that God's beauty can be revealed through us, the holiness of God, that the beauty of God can be revealed through us. Very interesting prayer in Psalm 90 verses 16 and 17. And then some of these Psalms are written in almost like in the couplets, meaning two sentences, which would actually be saying the same thing in a different way. So here he says, let your work appear to your servants and your glory to their children. And let the beauty of the Lord, our God, be upon us. Establish the work of our hands. Yes, establish the work of our hands. So it says, let your glory appear to their children, that the beauty of the Lord be upon us. And these two Hebrew words are interesting. When it talks here in this case, when it talks about the glory, it's talking about just the greatness of God. Let your glory, your excellence, see your greatness. Let it be seen, let your children see it. And then he also is praying that the beauty be upon us. And the beauty here, the Hebrew word beauty here, means what hits the eye of the beholder. What somebody else sees. So the glory is what the person has, what someone has. Here the beauty is what somebody else sees. And so he's saying, God, let your glory be revealed to your children and then let others see this beauty upon your people. It's such an interesting thought. God, your glory, let it be on us. And let others see this beauty in us or through us. And it is also through the work of our hands. So what we do, let people see it. Let people see your work and your glory revealed through us. So what we are saying, and because we know that the holiness of God is the beauty of God, we could say this. And this is only in part, it's not complete. But in part we could say that when we are walking in holiness, it's the beauty of God upon us that's being revealed through us. Others can see the beauty of our God as we walk in holiness. So holiness in our lives, and so that's the statement we're making, holiness in our lives will cause God's beauty, God's work, God's glory to be expressed through us. Because holiness is the beauty of God. I mean he prays, let your beauty in part, he's also saying that the holiness of God be seen through our lives. And so that should be our desire. Lord, let your work, let your glory, let your beauty be seen through my life. Let your work, let your glory, and let your holiness be seen through my life. Another aspect of the beauty of holiness is the Bible tells us to worship in the beauty of holiness. So here, when it's used the word, it's the same Hebrew word, Hadar which talks about the greatness in the beauty of holiness. You worship God. So true worship, and we said this earlier, true worship takes place in the beauty of holiness. So I need to be in that place of holiness and in that place of holiness, I need to worship God. Now of course we're not talking about holiness that we have achieved on our own because we have said earlier that holiness is God's nature imparted to us and it is God working his nature in us. So we're not coming to him apart from the holiness he's given to us. We're coming to him with the holiness he's given to us. But the point we want to emphasize is the Bible is telling us to worship in the splendor of his holiness or in the excellence, in the glory of his holiness. Worship the Lord in the glory, in the splendor of his holiness. So there is this sense of reverence that's happening in worship and we shouldn't forget that. And sometimes in this whole worship that we do or worship that we bring, of course we tend to look for how did I feel when I worshiped God? Well it's good to feel the presence of God. It's good to desire to feel the presence of God. I am not against it and I know how wonderful it is when you can sense or feel or recognize the presence of God. But sometimes that whole thing can become a very fleshly, sense-ruled experience. Whereas the Bible is telling us to worship in the beauty of holiness. That means I'm not coming to worship God so that I can feel good and but I come to worship God in that place of holiness saying, God I'm here, I'm stepping into this place of sacredness, into this place of your glory to worship you and we leave aside everything else. To worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness. We should be in a place of awe, of reverence as we stand to worship Him. And not only are we standing in that place of holiness, but worship itself is an adoration of His holiness. You know here it says, I can go back to 2021. You praise the beauty of holiness. That means you are magnifying, you're adoring, you are speaking of praises, telling of it is to express the worth. That's what praises. So you're declaring the splendor, the glory of holiness. Or the psalmist put it this way that I will be to behold the beauty of the Lord. That means you're gazing upon the beauty, the splendor, the grace of the Lord. And we saw earlier the beauty of the Lord is holiness. So in worship we are declaring how great, how wonderful His holiness is. It's focusing in on that. It's our adoration, our admiration of His beauty and His beauty alone. And that in part includes His holiness. Okay, so worship must take place in holiness and worship itself is an adoration of His holiness. It's a praise, it's a declaration of the magnificence of His holiness, or the glory of His holiness, how amazing and how splendor, how wonderful His holiness is. And then what we also see in the context of worship is, in all of these three passages in Psalm 15, Psalm 24 and Psalm 65, it's telling us that God is dwelling in holiness. It says, there's holy hill, there's holy place, there's holy temple. And then it's telling us, look, when we come into, when we're approaching the dwelling place of God, which is holy, we need to come putting aside, getting us, cleansing ourselves of all of the, you know, all the things that are unholy. That's basically. So in my approach to God, I must come with a holy life. Right, so a holy life is important even in our worship of God. You know, so what I, suppose I'm spending 30 minutes in worship, the remaining 23 and a half hours of the day are also important, are also part of my worship, are part of that 30 minute of worship. Because everything else he talks about here, in verses two to five, is talking about what we do in the remaining 23 and a half hours. You know, you walk uprightly, you speak the truth, you don't backbite, you don't evil, all of that. For what purpose? That I may abide in a stab or knuckle, that I may dwell in this holy hill. So that's dwelling in the presence of God. But in order to do that, hey, he's saying, have a life, our whole life is to be an expression of that holiness. So the same thing in Psalm 24, you know, he says, who's going to come up to the hill of the Lord? Well, clean hands, pure heart, not given to idolatry, not speaking lies, meaning the life I live is a life of holiness, in order to ascend the hill of the Lord and to stand in this holy place. Now, again, we don't, we don't want to, you know, come under condemnation and neither are we trying to say that we are earning our place in the presence of God. That's not the point. We are coming freely by grace, we're coming freely to the blood of Jesus Christ. But both the testaments, the old and the new, are emphasizing a life of holiness, which is then going to facilitate that place of worship in the presence of God. So while we are not talking or emphasizing works, we must understand the importance of a life of holiness in order to, you know, be in that place where we can worship and dwell in this holy hill. So our approach to God, our approach to the presence of God takes place in reverence and not in revelry. So this is something I feel you just need to point out, that somehow, you know, we don't hear so much about holiness in, at least in, in the, you know, maybe the spirit failed settings, maybe we don't hear enough in the contemporary or the post-modern church or, you know, if we use different terms, you call them reformed or post-modern or whatever, in the contemporary church, we don't hear enough of this that, look, I need to approach God with a life of holiness and a worship must take place in holiness, worship is an adoration of His holiness and a life of holiness provides me that entrance into that place of worship. You know, these are some things we don't hear enough or we don't see it modeled for us enough and so it's time for us to, you know, remind ourselves and I get back to the place of reverence before God. A few more thoughts here in this whole aspect of, you know, approaching God and holiness is very interesting that God himself says that He is the one who dwells in the high and holy place but the person who is of a contrite and a humble spirit dwells with Him in that high and holy place. That means, so what God is saying, if you want to paraphrase this, what God is saying is, I live in this place of holiness and those who walk with humility, with brokenness are the ones who are going to dwell with me in this place of holiness. I'm just paraphrasing what He's saying here. So He's the high and holy one who dwells in this high and holy place but He says, those who walk with a broken, humble spirit dwell there with Him. So it's important for us to understand and this is seen in other places in scripture where God says, you know, He resists the proud but He gives grace to the humble and in our approach to God He says, you know, humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God. So there is this place of humility and submission that will enable us to dwell in the holiness of God or you could say this way, pride and self-dependence will take us away from the place of holiness, from dwelling in holiness. If humility and submission takes us into holiness then the opposite is also true. Pride and self-dependence will take us away from the place of holiness. So this is an interesting thought that as believers we have to walk with both confidence and brokenness, we have to walk with authority and humility. So, you know, we need to know when I walk in my identity in Christ and on authority and when I have to walk in humility. We need to know when I walk with confidence in God, I can do all things for Christ and we need to know when we are broken before God and say, God without you I am nothing. Without you I can do nothing because we learn that humility and brokenness enables us to dwell in holiness or pride and self-dependence takes us away from the place of holiness. So we need that. We have to walk in brokenness and humility if we want to dwell in the high and holy place with God. So that's important and we need to know how to do that. Another interesting thing we see in relation to the beauty of holiness and the last two points here have to do with the millennial reign of Christ. These scriptures are talking about when the Lord Jesus sets up his kingdom. Psalm 110 verse 103 we know it because the Lord said to my Lord, sit at my right time till I make you enemies your footstool. So this is the millennial reign because this Psalm 110 verses 1 and 2 are quoted many times in relation to the millennial reign of Christ. So we know that the Psalm is talking about that. It's a prophetic Psalm talking about the reign of Christ on the earth. And verse 3 is interesting because it says that during his millennial reign his people will be volunteers in the day of your power. That is when he's ruling he will be just volunteering will be already but what kind of volunteers would we be? It says in the beauty of holiness from the womb of the morning you have the dew of your youth. So the people your people will be volunteers in the day of your power in the beauty of holiness from the womb of the morning you have the dew of the youth. And if you look at you know other translations and how they have translated this verse many of these translations you know when you read verse 3 sometimes it's a little confusing in the room is he talking about is he talking about the Lord? Is he talking about the volunteers? You know your people will be volunteers in the day of your power in the beauty of holiness from the womb of the morning you have the dew of youth. So if you just kind of you know you look into other translations it kind of throws some light here. So what it's telling us is that your people will be volunteers in the day of your power. They will be clothed in holiness rising up early in the morning with the strength of their youth. That's the idea or at least one of the ideas that are brought out in verse 3 and I do admit that verse 3 is a little bit confusing. So usually when when some verse is not very clear I just kind of read it in many different translations to see how they have translated it and maybe that will help understand it. So what is interesting is in that millennial frame the people of God will be volunteers and they will be clothed with the beauty of holiness and I found that very interesting you know the gods people will be clothed with the beauty of holiness and of course they will rise up early and they will serve with the strength of their youth meaning with all their strength they will serve. Of course this is also you know explained for us in the New Testament that we will reign with him but his people who are going to be reigning with him who are going to be using their strength and their zeal to serve with the Lord. What is very interesting is they're going to be clothed with holiness. They're going to be wearing garments of holiness. So I was just thinking about that and of course he's talking about the millennial reign but how about today Christ is ruling in our lives or in us as his church he's our king and if the millennial reign is going to look like that then how about today what should we be clothed with as his volunteers as people are serving him the answer is quite obvious we should also be clothed with the beauty of holiness so holiness becomes our dawning as his people as his volunteers as his you know people are just full of zeal for the Lord to serve him so that's that's what I've shared here and John brings out about Titus and John bring out the fact that as we look for the glorious appearing of the Lord Jesus Christ what do we do we deny and godliness he lives soberly right just lean godly in this present age or we purify ourselves even as he is pure so with that anticipation of his return we choose to walk in holiness and purity and lastly when Isaiah writes about the reign of the Lord he says as you know when Jesus sets up his kingdom here on earth he talks about a highway of holiness leading in to to Jerusalem that people will come singing to Zion on on this highway of holiness so just imagine even the road leading into Jerusalem into Mount Zion in that millennial reign is going to be called the highway of holiness or holiness is going to be the path that brings the nations in to worship the Lord and Zechariah also points this out he says and Zechariah 14 of course is again talking about that millennial reign and he's saying you know in that reign holiness to the Lord is going to be engraved on the bells of horses the pots in the Lord's house the bowls every pot in Jerusalem Judah will be holiness to the Lord of hosts and everyone who comes you know and cooks they're basically he's saying the idea that truth is bringing out is when Jesus is reigning in Jerusalem everything is going to be consecrated to him it's going to be holiness to the Lord even the bells that horses where are going to have holiness to the Lord the cooking pots are going to have holiness to the Lord you know I just already imagined that means everything in and around Jerusalem is going to be consecrated it's going to be holy to the Lord in the house of the Lord so the millennial reign is going to be characterized by holiness there's going to be a highway of holiness to the Lord because people volunteers will be clothed in holiness everything that's in Jerusalem that's used for the Lord is going to be you know holiness to the Lord and that's how it's going to end I mean the millennial reign or what we know so with that we close off this section and the main thing you know in this chapter chapter six is that in understanding the holiness of God we say look the holiness of God so so fill our lives that everything we do is done in the context of holiness being set apart consecrated to the Lord and for his purpose okay so I will pause here if there any discussions we can have discuss and then next week we will start talking about repentance recovery and restoration and from there we go into overcoming the flesh the world and the devil this that's more of the practical side of holiness as it is worked out in our lives none of us are perfect God is working his holiness in us but our goal is to get a revelation an increasing revelation of the holiness of God and how God wants us to live in holiness and whether it's in the worship or in the adoration in approaching his presence so we need to understand that and and let him work holiness in our lives any thoughts any questions on chapter six okay go ahead please Divya yeah thank you pastor my question is about how when you said like approaching God in the beauty of holiness uh so is it uh the you know the kind of the level of transparency you have with God with your life and also um you're aware of a holy God but you know that we know that we are imperfect before this holy God uh so you know that the understanding of it and being transparent uh to God about it because when you said like we approach God with holiness I didn't quite get it what what actually uh does it mean in a practical sense okay so practically good question so practically what does it mean how do we you know how do we do it in practice well there is freedom but there is a reference so when we come before God we are free we are the sons and daughters um become you know through the righteousness of Christ we come through the blood of Christ so there's there's freedom there's no sense of condemnation guilt and shame and condemnation that we don't have to say oh God I'm such a big lever um or you know I'm such a no good thing yeah we don't have to put up a false pretence we embrace what he's done for us in Christ but at the same time there is reference there is that recognition that he is so big and we are mortal there's reference for God we can't forget that and we shouldn't forget it so there's freedom there is reverence and then there is also the the like like you used to write word transparency or or you know that decide to be clean before God you know there is no pretence and there is um and used to word purity because Jesus you know he said blessed are the pure in heart but they will see God so my revelation of God my encounter of God is affected by the purity of my heart that means if I try to keep falsehood or pretence in my heart it's going to going to blind me towards God because blessed are the pure in heart or they will see God if I want to see God I have to maintain a pure heart or if I won't have a revelation of God I have to maintain a pure heart pure heart means I keep my heart clean before God I'm not hiding anything I'm not pretending God this is the way it is and sometimes it means I just tell you know so God you know I got angry about this or God I didn't do this right or God here's how I'm feeling about this right so I don't pretend that it's not there that would be falsehood but I acknowledge God this is how I'm feeling about this matter I need you to help me I need you to get this right in my heart I know the way I'm feeling is not right but I need to get it right with your help so that openness that purity of heart which if we maintain will enable us to know him right so that's another important part in us coming to God purity of heart and um okay yeah yeah thank you thank you first and one can I ask one more question yeah so I was also thinking about when God does you know mighty things in our life and if we are not intentional about acknowledging it so that is a way that we are robbing God of his glory right so is it right in saying that like if I'm not not only in my you know heart but if even before people are so am I robbing God of the glory so the way I would respond to that question is each one should do what we feel released in our hearts to do because sometimes God will do great things but you don't feel released in your heart yet to talk about it because maybe I'm just saying it even from my own experience but that sometimes I don't like to talk about it because either it may come out as very self-serving you know God has done wonderful things but if I start talking about it in front of people it may it may come out as though I'm using that to serve myself you know self-serving or it just may be no the right time to talk about it it may be people not ready to receive it so then you just keep quiet about it and when you feel released in your heart to talk about it then you talk about it you know so yes we want to give God the glory we want to acknowledge the mighty things we have done so first and foremost in your own present in the time with God you say God thank you for what you've done I'm praised you got acknowledged the good things you've done in my life a clown is a mighty thing so there itself you're giving praise to God but when you feel released then you speak about it to people it's simply because sometimes it is true God has done great things but sometimes when we talk about that in public it just may come across wrong in one or more ways in the sense that it may end up drawing attention to ourselves then to God or people are not ready to receive it they just will not be able to understand or the people may be drawn to us and so being drawn to God so on so forth so I would say you know when you are released in your heart to do it then do it in public but definitely in your private time of worship you're definitely giving thanks to God and acknowledging the many things he has done or is doing in your life okay okay thank you thank you so much all right just a few more questions here on the chat and it does asking what is it to come to God in brokenness uh brokenness uh I would put put put it in another term I would call it in dependence towards God right so try to imagine something that something is broken it has nothing of its own self to hold it up it needs something from outside to hold it together so when we say we are broken what we are saying is God I am dependent on you to hold you know in my life so if you want to say brokenness if you only put it in another way you could say it's a place of dependence or complete dependence on the Lord that's a sign of brokenness the opposite is self-dependence or self-reliance so if you want to look at scripture in John 15 Jesus said you know you're abiding me and I abiding you because without me you can do nothing so that's a place of broken God I'm dependent on you or when you look at Paul the Apostle you know in Philippians 3 verse 3 I think he said we are of the circumcision who serve God in the spirit and have no confidence in the flesh and then he goes on to list all his qualifications he says I'm a Hebrew for Hebrew and so on and so forth you know but he says I have no confidence in the flesh so he's serving God but he's not depending on himself yeah so Chaya I was just referencing in John chapter the verses that I was just referencing right now was John chapter 15 and I think it's verse number three let me just check again and the branch goes for the John 15 4 and 5 also I was referencing Philippians 3 and I'll give you the exact words Philippians chapter 3 and verse 3 and you can also think about second Corinthians chapter 3 and verse 5 where Paul says you know we are sufficiencies of God and not of ourselves okay second Corinthians 3 5 okay Kennedy what about people using the title of Reverend is there in their name example Reverend Kennedy what does your take on this well if they want to use it it's entirely their choice you know and it I guess it you know it indicates something at least in some for example Reverend means he's been officially ordained by some denomination you know and in some situations it becomes important example if you want to go into a hospital to pray for a person there are some hospitals that need to see that you have this title or you need to have a card that says Reverend so-and-so that means you are a life ordained and licensed licensed an ordained minister and only then they let you in so you know in some situations something like this would be useful to have uh yeah so I don't see anything wrong with it as long as you know we are not basing our identity in it you know I don't care if people call me pastor or Ashish or brother or whatever you know it just doesn't matter to me I don't pay attention to it anyway so if they want to use the title I've never I didn't put it for myself but if they want to use it it's okay it's you know it's up to them but I'm sorry is it scriptual yeah so there is no script for or against it right other than Jesus said you know don't call any man your father because you're one father in heaven it's not yeah it's more of a earthly practice a practice here on earth just as a recognition of ordination or licensing by a authorized agency you know just like example example like if you're a doctor you know you need to be licensed by a authorized agency or if you're practicing something else if you're a you know you're a lifeguard you need to be licensed by some agency so from that perspective reverend comes in they're okay this denomination or this organization has ordained and licensed this person so I wouldn't you know worry too much about whether it's biblical or not it's more of a you know a practical thing as we have in many other cases now all I would say is we shouldn't take pride in it don't base your identity in it if you have it it's good if you don't have it doesn't matter but spiritually speaking our ordination comes from God right John 15 and verse 16 Jesus said you haven't chosen me I've chosen you and ordained you so if you ask for me practically nobody has no person on earth ordained me I don't have a reverend I don't have a license I don't have an ordination from any denomination and it doesn't bother me because God has called us and God has ordained us so that's enough yeah okay I don't know if I answered your question I just said a lot of things but okay but if it's the better it's okay yeah it's okay but it's the better yes yes so open to discussion all right Anita sometimes we tend to take selfish decisions then are we unholy so you know see the thing of the the fact is we all make mistakes we all sin we all do wrong things that doesn't make us unholy just means God is still working in us and we need to bring those areas in submission to the Lord right it doesn't say like we are bad people now it just means those areas that we need to bring before God and we are going to learn how to do that and so that God can you know we can live overcoming lives okay last question Prabhakar how do we know our sacrifices wholly and acceptable before God how do we know our sacrifices wholly and acceptable before God so if we do do it the way the scriptures teach us to do it right and we and and we do it of course we're doing it depending on the blood of Christ what Christ has done for us we're doing it from standing in the place of grace that means by grace we have been justified and made righteous and then we offer our sacrifice of praise of worship the way God tells us to do it then we know that's wholly and acceptable to God because it's being done through Christ based on his work and the way God wants us to do it which is in spirit in truth and according to his word right so so example then you're going to worship God say God I come to you and I come because you know the blood of Jesus is cleansed me I come because of your gift of righteousness and I worship you God and then you you worship in sincerity and truth that is a sacrifice acceptable to God because you're fulfilling you're following the instructions God has given to us right Hebrews chapter 10 19 and 20 kind of outlined that it says you know we have boldness to enter the holiest by the blood of Jesus and let us come with a pure heart having our hearts cleansed from an evil conscience and you know we come that way to offer up to God so we're coming through because of the blood coming without any guilt or shame and we offer our sacrifices to God okay okay our time is up and we've got to go for a break and then go for the next class we'll pause here we will pray and dismiss good somebody just quickly pray for us dismiss us can I pray go ahead please thank you lord thank you father for once again giving us this opportunity lord to learn more father lord regarding this aspect lord the beauty of your holiness father lord
