Fixed On Jesus: Jesus Sanctifier

“What is sanctification? It's separation from sin. It's a removal of ourselves from sin. That's what holiness means to be separated. … It means conforming my will to the likeness of God. Sanctification means love, the supreme love of God, towards all mankind working in me. Jesus himself is a source of salvation. He is also the source of our sanctification. We're not looking like we're trying to just climb this mountain. What we're realizing is God has come and lived inside me. Jesus himself is personally indwelling in me. He doesn't just impute righteousness. He actually himself lives in me. He takes up residency. He's like a resident DJ or artist playing the music. Jesus becomes our heart.”
