Holiness speaks when there is silence, encouraging that which is good or reproving that which is wrong.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Human Potential174 views0 answers0 votesShunya said: “If you want to help a guilt-ridden person, don’t act holy and pure around them.
