1 Jesus Christ our Sanctifier “But by His doing you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption,” (1Co 1:30 NASB)

2 1. What is SANCTIFICATION? a. Sanctification means SEPARATION Separation FROM Sin - “But just as He who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do; for it is written: ‘Be holy, because I am holy.’” (1 Peter 1:15–16) Separation TO God - “[He] has made us to be a kingdom and priests to serve His God and Father... ” (Revelation 1:6)

3 b. Is there a difference between the BAPTISM and FILLING? c. C&MA definition Sanctification is both a CRISIS and PROCESS that begins in the life of a Christ follower, usually subsequent to conversion and provides both power for HOLY LIVING (USA Pentecostal Holiness) and effective SERVICE (UK Keswick).

5 2. Two KINDS of Christians John 1:29–33 Two REALITIES – two EXPERIENCES Deliverance from PENALTY of sin Deliverance from PENALTY of sin Deliverance from the POWER of sin Deliverance from the POWER of sin Freedom from DEATH Freedom from DEATH Freedom to LIVE Freedom to LIVE

7 True or False? SPIRITUAL and WORLDLY (carnal) As a matter of fact, my friends, I could not talk to you as I talk to people who have the Spirit; I had to talk to you as though you belonged to this world, as children in the Christian faith. I had to feed you milk, not solid food, because you were not ready for it. And even now you are not ready for it, because you still live as the people of this world live. When there is jealousy among you and you quarrel with one another, doesn't this prove that you belong to this world, living by its standards? When one of you says, "I follow Paul," and another, "I follow Apollos"---aren't you acting like worldly people? (1Co 3:1-4 GNB)

8 SELF-propelled and SPIRIT driven I've tried everything and nothing helps. I'm at the end of my rope. Is there no one who can do anything for me? Isn't that the real question? The answer, thank God, is that Jesus Christ can and does. He acted to set things right in this life of contradictions where I want to serve God with all my heart and mind, but am pulled by the influence of sin to do something totally different. (Rom 7:24-25 MSG) A new power is in operation. The Spirit of life in Christ, like a strong wind, has magnificently cleared the air, freeing you from a fated lifetime of brutal tyranny at the hands of sin and death. (Rom 8:2 MSG)

9 FILLED and not filled Do not get drunk with wine, which will only ruin you; instead, be filled with the Spirit. (Eph 5:18 GNB)

10 3. What does sanctification LOOK like? “It’s all about PURITY.” “It’s all about PURITY.” “It’s all about POWER.” “It’s all about POWER.” “It’s all about JOY.” “It’s all about JOY.”

11 4. The STEPS to a Spirit-filled life a. SURRENDER (Rom. 6:11; Rom. 12:1–2) b. ACCEPT (Col. 2:6; Gal. 2:20) c. ABIDE (John 15:1–11) “If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to you children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit (power) to those who ask him! (Luke 11:13)
