Holy means to be separated for God's use. I wish people knew the definition. It would keep them from saying inaccurate things.

In Romans 6:22 it says the benefits you reap, being free from sin leads to holiness and the result for living for God is eternal life! God Bless!

Yes we can see God. He is within the heart of every living being. The Process to see God fully is called Bhakti Yoga or Krishna Consciousness. For info go to harekrishnatemple.com Read Bhagavad Gita as it is BY Bhaktivedanta Prabhupada. Being holy means giving up all sin and following the will of God. It is possible to completely stop sinning we have to follow in the footsteps of the Pure souls. Jesus, Prabhupada, St Francis, and so many others. You can do it too.

It means to be separated. Hebrews 12:14 says - Pursue peace with all people, and holiness, without which no one will see the Lord:

Holiness is gained not through Good works but by faith in our daily living through Christ. Holiness is acquired through repentance, acceptance and living unto Christ. Christ is our Holiness. His sacrifice is greater than all our sins and as a result declares us Holy as long as we choose to walk with him. That is why the Bibles states that in 1 John 3:20 'For if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things."
God bless

I feel you have to be like him (God) which means you have to be Holy, in order to see him.

That is what the Bible says
Be Holy as He is Holy
Holy in all conversation word and deed
To receive his incarnate nature and wisdom and knowledge

No. You can not be holy, you are only righteous through Jesus. We are crack pot vessels.
