Sanctification has always been an interesting, yet somewhat confusing topic for me. It is interesting for me because as a child my impression of sanctification was flawed. Whether I just had a flawed view myself or if it came from poor teaching I am not sure, but to me sanctification consisted of simply trying harder to not “break the rules”. I did not have a focus of the Holy Spirit as the one who performed sanctification, but rather it was us who ‘tried’ to follow the rules. I now know this is incorrect now, but I must admit I have not fully absorbed the implications of my corrected view of sanctification.
Which is what brings me to this post. The video interview below was very illuminating and did more for my understanding of the topic than most things I have heard before. If the topic intrigues you I highly recommend you take the 50 minutes or so to listen to it.
