Sanctification as Taught in the Scriptures

I desire to present this subject of sanctification in such a way that if anyone has any controversy about it his controversy will be with the Spirit of God, and with the Word of God, in which the Spirit has revealed His mind on the subject. Our purpose is simply to get an answer to the question: What is meant in Scripture by the words "sanctify," "sanctified," and "sanctification" or "holiness?" (which is the same word in the original). -- Page . Deals with various Scripture passages that address the issue of sanctification. Argues that sanctification is an objective reality rather than a subjective experience. States that God declares a believer to be sanctified regardless of the believer's actions and justifies the believer subsequent to that sanctification. Investigates several Scripture passages both in the Old Testament and the New Testament in order to arrive at this conclusion. Says that this is not man's idea but rather what God Himself has revealed in His word to be the truth regarding sanctification.
