Sanctification

Summary

The sermon on sanctification explains that sanctification is a twofold process involving an initial work at regeneration where believers are made new creatures in Christ, and a progressive, ongoing work through the Holy Spirit using spiritual means such as the Word of God, prayer, and trials. It emphasizes that sanctification is not sinless perfection or a second blessing but a continual growth in holiness and conformity to Christ. The preacher highlights the importance of the Bible and spiritual disciplines in this process and clarifies common misconceptions about sanctification and salvation.
