Sanctification
We believe that sanctification is the divine setting apart of the believer unto God accomplished in a threefold manner: first, an eternal act of God, based upon redemption in Christ, establishing the believer in a position of holiness at the moment he trusts the Savior; second, a continuing process in the saint as the Holy Spirit applies the Word of God to the life; third, the final accomplishment of this process at the Lord’s return. (Heb 10:10-14; 3:1; Jn 17:17; II Cor 3:18; I Cor 1:30; Eph 5:25-27; I Thess 4:3-4; 5:23-24; I Jn 3:2; Jude 24-25; Rev 22:11)
