Sermon Excerpt From “From Contagion to Consecration” drawn from Haggai 2:10-19 – “Holy things, things set apart by God for his use, do not by touch or by proximity, make other things holy. So, an illustration of that would be. An illustration would be that when we have the communion elements and they're set apart for the glory of God and the benefit of the people of God, those elements actually do not make people holy.”
