In a Word

 

If someone were to describe you in just one word, what would you want it to be?


Holy (
Prov. 1:24–28).

 

Response to comment [from other]:  "The one-word version of "holy smokes, Batman"?"

 

I'm interested in holiness.  How 'bout you cheesy?

 

"Not sure the truly holy brag about being holy.  Try "sanctimonious". I think it fits you better..."

 

Ad hominem.

Holiness is the goal. I'm not there yet (
1 Kings 8:46; Prov. 20:9; Eccl. 7:20; James 3:2; 1 John 1:8).

How 'bout you cheesy? Are you interested in holiness? Or, do you love your sin too much?

 

"If you're not holy, then why describe yourself as such?"

 

I don't describe myself as such.   The question was:  What would you want it [a description of you] to be? 

 

"I am certainly interested in holiness. Just don't expect me to brag too much when I do right..."

 

When do you do right?
