What does this mean for us?
It is impossible for this kind of perfect God:
Totally good
Perfectly holy
Unable to lie
100% righteous
To live with this kind of sinful man:
Not good
Unholy
Dishonest
Spiritually Dead
Our sins have made a separation between us and God, and that separation isn't small. It's like we're on opposite sides of the Grand Canyon and there's an immeasurable gap between us and God because of our sin. God's on one side and we're on the other, and there's nothing we can do to get across.
Isaiah 59:2
But your iniquities (sin) have made a separation between you and your God and your sins have hidden His face from you so that He does not hear.
