He not only washes him from his sins in His own blood, but He also separates him from his natural love of sin and the world, puts a new principle in his heart and makes him practically godly in life. The instrument by which the Spirit effects this work is generally the Word of God, though He sometimes uses afflictions.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">He who supposes that Jesus Christ only lived and died and rose again in order to provide justification and forgiveness of sins for His people has yet much to learn. Whether he knows it or not, he is dishonoring our blessed Lord and making Him only a half Savior. The Lord Jesus has undertaken everything that His people\u2019s souls require: not only to deliver them from the guilt of their sins by His atoning death, but from the dominion of their sins, by placing in their hearts the Holy Spirit; not only to justify them, but also to sanctify them. He is, thus, not only their &#8220;righteousness,&#8221; but their &#8220;sanctification&#8221;<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">If words mean anything, they teach that Christ undertakes the sanctification, no less than the justification, of His believing people. Both are alike provided for in that &#8220;everlasting covenant ordered in all things and sure,&#8221; of which the Mediator is Christ. In fact, Christ in one place is called &#8220;He who sanctifies,&#8221; and His people &#8220;they who are sanctified&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; Jhn 17:19\u00a0\u00a0And for their sake I consecrate myself, that they also may be sanctified in truth.
