Holiness (13)
  1. This is an excerpt from Chapter 7 of Junk Drawer Jesus written by Matt Popovits (1517 Publishing, 2024). Available today!
  2. If your faith is rooted in the gospel of Zion, in the good news of Jesus’s life, death, and resurrection on your behalf, you are already a member of the “heavenly Jerusalem”
  3. How the ancient view of "guts" is a lively metaphor of promise
  4. False holiness is always a possession and achievement of the individual in isolation from the good of others. And so it isn’t holiness at all.
  5. Sometimes it’s important to go far away to learn of holy places back home.
  6. Justification and regeneration are, therefore, necessarily connected and have profound implications upon the craft of preaching.
  7. God is holy, nothing I say or do or pray is going to make God any more or less holy. So what are we praying when we say, “hallowed be your name”?
  8. How we define holiness will affect our approach to God.
  9. This article is the second installment in an eight-part series inspired by the Lenten themes of catechesis, prayer, and repentance found in the Lord’s Prayer as Luther taught it in his Small Catechism.
  10. We walk to the cross by the faith that God bestows on us, not by our own power, reason, or might.
  11. Growth and maturity in the Spirit doesn’t look like we think it does. That’s because it’s backward.
  12. Apart from bare, naked faith in Jesus' atoning work for us, no sinner is, or ever can be, holy.
