christianity and holy things ezek god seems to be upset with the priests who have made no difference between the holy and the profane this brought to my mind a sermon i heard recently in which the speaker said god s second name does not begin with a d referring i believe to use of god s holy name and titles as swear words i was also reminded of the experience of moses at the burning bush when god told him take off your sandals for the place where you are standing is holy ground these and other texts seem to imply that god s people must treat holy things differently from other common things or make a difference between holy and common things the obvious questions are what makes something holy and how are christians primarily supposed to make this difference between holy and common things e g god s name the holy spirit the holy bible etc darius
