THE OBJECTIVES OF HOLINESS: Dirk Van der MerweHTS Theological Studies 73 (3):1-9 (2017)   

  • The first objective is to constitute a unity among the followers of Jesus, although it is not explicitly defined in this context. 
  • The second objective refers to the preparation of Jesus' disciples to continue Jesus' mission. 
  • The third objective for holiness is that the world may believe and may know that God has sent his Son. 
  • The fourth and the ultimate objective is the glorification of God.
