The LORD is Holy.

God is intrinsically holy, being holy in His nature without limits. 

God is primarily holy, being the perfect and the only true pattern of holiness.

God is efficiently holy, being the cause of all holiness in angels and saints. 

God is transcendently holy, being far above the capacity of holy angels and glorified saints to behold, much less fallen man.

[Thomas Watson]



Revelation 4:8 ... And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him; and they were full of eyes within: and they rest not day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come.

Isaiah 6:3 ... And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory.

1 Samuel 2:2 ...  There is none holy as the Lord: for there is none beside thee: neither is there any rock like our God.
