Holiness is difficult concept. The Bible Bard has presented what the Bible says about it. Today’s podcast discusses something even more difficult than the idea of God's holiness and that is what is the opposite of holiness. The opposite of holiness is the difficult concept called “sin”. It’s not that sin is hard to understand, it’s just that we don’t like what it means. Sin is the opposite of holiness in that it is positive unholiness. The brief (but consistent) simple Bible answer is that sin is the opposite of what God is and what God does.
To uncover what the Bible says about any topic we look at sample texts. I call these sample texts because for any topic there are usually many available texts that provide the Bible's view, so I only need to use a few of the most easily understood verses to explain a topic in the least amount of time.
