# Romans 12:1-2 and God's Holiness Romans 12:1-2 states: "Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will" (NIV). While this passage focuses primarily on the believer's response to God rather than directly describing God's holiness, it implies God's holiness through the call for believers to be "holy and pleasing to God" as an act of worship. The passage suggests that God's nature requires separation from worldly patterns and transformation toward His "good, pleasing and perfect will," reflecting His moral perfection and distinctiveness from creation.
