The Source of Sanctification 8/5 Monday Meditation

1. He has purchased it for us.  It is part of the fruit of Calvary... 
2. It does not come to us by our efforts, but it is made over to us as the purchase of His death upon the cross.  It is ours by the purchase of Jesus just as much as forgiveness is.  You have as much right to be holy and sanctified as you have to be saved.  You can go to God and claim it as your inheritance as much as you can your pardon for sin.  If you do not have it you are falling short of your redemption privileges.
-- A.B. Simpson, The Four-fold Gospel
