Summary

Sanctification is the act of God whereby the believing sinner is set apart FROM sin (its penalty at salvation, its power in our lives, and its presence in eternity) and TO God, Christ, and righteousness. This lesson focuses primarily on the practical aspect of sanctification, i.e. being set apart from the power of sin in our lives. Paul teaches us in Romans 6 four things that can lead us to living above the power of sin: 1) There is a fact to know. As believers we are dead to sin.2) There is a faith to apply. We must account the fact as true to ourselves personally. 3) There is a function to fulfill. We must choose to yield to the power of the Holy Spirit as opposed to yielding to power of sin. 4) There is a faithfulness to live out. We must choose to obey God.
