The nature of God's holiness has been widely misunderstood by contemporary theologians. In this volume David Willis not only clarifies this divine attribute but also gives it the prominence in Christian thought that it deserves. According to Willis, confusion about God's holiness is due to the compound mistake of treating the notions of transcendence and immanence as opposities and subsuming holiness exclusively under God's transcendence. To correct this view, Willis begins where all true Christian theology should -- with the cross. He shows how Jesus' death is the supreme example of God's immanence, which continues to be realized in the act of communion. On this more direct experience of God is to be found a surer understanding of the meaning of holiness, and Willis looks in detail at its many facets -- purity, simplicity, infinity, beauty, and love. Finally, he explores how the holiness of God provides the basis for the life of Christian faith and hope in today's world. Providing inspiration for the soul as well as solid theological insight for the mind, this book will benefit students, groups, and individuals alike.
