The Holiness of God

“No on did more in recent decades to remind us of the bigness of God than R. C. Sproul. This book will make sure we who were created in God's image do not recreate him in ours.”

“If it is true, as Calvin tells us, that our greatest need is to know God, the specific need of our times is to know God in his holiness. We have suffered much loss both in Christian living and in Christian witness by our neglect of this theme. May God use this book to the blessing and upbuilding of a new generation of readers.”

“Nothing is more important in our Christian lives than our understanding of who God is. In this book Dr. Sproul shows us what that means and challenges us to think again about the depths of divine holiness. To ponder this is to see ourselves as we really are, to repent afresh and to turn to him again with greater dedication and commitment. This is a message we cannot do without.”

“Every generation is under a biblical mandate to provide a legacy for the coming generation that honors the Lord and propels them with insight and encouragement rooted in the glorious gospel of our Savior, Jesus Christ. In The Holiness of God, Dr. R.C. Sproul has provided such a legacy for the next generation.”

“The Holiness of God by R.C. Sproul is a classic of twentieth century Reformed literature. Few things are more important than to grasp the holiness of God and worship in reverence and awe. I am delighted that it has been republished for a new generation to discover.”

“The book, which is refreshingly written, is food for the soul. I know of no theme so in need of recovery in the church's life today as that of God's holiness, and this book is among the very best ever written on this subject.”

“I can say without hesitation that it was The Holiness of God, purchased on a whim, which planted the seeds of my current vocation as a Presbyterian pastor.”

“This is one of those books that, if I was more organized, I would schedule to read every year or so Though Dr. Sproul has written some great books in this life, I do think this is the best of them.”

“This book is a game-changer! Everything in our lives and ministries begins and ends with a soul-gripping awareness of God's infinite holiness. These dramatic chapters, written in high-impact fashion, reveal what the holiness of God is and how it should revolutionize our lives.”

“When people ask me to name the Ligonier teaching material they should use to help them grow; I tell them, 'You should start with The Holiness of God.'”

“When I first heard R. C. Sproul's teaching on the holiness of God, it brought me face-to-face with the awful splendor of God's majestic holiness in a new and fresh way. I was smitten with the realization that holiness is not merely a peripheral attribute of God; it is at the core of all He is and does. I realized then that this was precisely the message the church of our generation urgently needed - and still needs today. Nearly a decade after I first heard this series, the message still challenges my thinking and rekindles my heart.”

“Every Christian who is serious about his or her growth needs to read The Holiness of God. I profited greatly from this book.”
