Psalm 56:9: The false dichotomy of God’s holiness and God’s love that is often propagated in our society comes from a failure to fully understand what holiness means and what love means. When we understand these properly, we come to see that it is our Father’s Holy Love that moves against our sin to provide life through His Son so that we can be holy as He is holy.

Synopsis: The false dichotomy of God’s holiness and God’s love that is often propagated in our society
comes from a failure to fully understand what holiness means and what love means. When we understand
these properly, we come to see that it is our Father’s Holy Love that moves against our sin to provide life
through His Son so that we can be holy as He is holy. Based on thoughts from The Dragon Slayer by Jim
