Q: What is God's holiness?
A: God's holiness consists in "God's infinite love to himself. . . . As all creature holiness is to be resolved into love, as the Scripture teaches us, so doth the holiness of God himself consist in infinite love to himself. God's holiness is the infinite beauty and excellency of his nature. And God's holiness consists in his love to himself. . . ."
—Jonathan Edwards, "Discourse on the Trinity," Works, vol. 21, p. 123.
