A Short Message To Get You Excited For Sunday’s Worship Service.
How To Be Sanctified
Paul writes to Christians, and tells them it is God’s will that they be sanctified. They are already saved, but they have more growth to do. You can think of sanctification as a purification, like refining gold—The impurities rise to the surface and can be scooped away. In this passage, Paul helps us bring 3 impurities in our lives to the surface so God can help us rid us of them so we can become more sanctified. Join us Sunday at 10 AM for Bible class and 11 AM for worship as we all grow in sanctification together!
