In the biblical context, sanctification refers to the process of being made holy, consecrated, or set apart for God's purposes. Biblical Usage: Sanctification is a central theme in both the Old and New Testaments, reflecting God's desire for His people to be holy as He is holy. The concept is multifaceted, encompassing both an initial act of being set apart and an ongoing process of spiritual growth and moral purity. Old Testament Context: In the Old Testament, sanctification often involves the consecration of people, places, and objects for divine service. For example, the Sabbath is sanctified as a day of rest and worship (<a href="/genesis/2-3.htm">Genesis 2:3</a>), and the Israelites are called to be a holy nation (<a href="/exodus/19-6.htm">Exodus 19:6</a>). The priests and the tabernacle are also sanctified for their roles in worship (<a href="/exodus/29-44.htm">Exodus 29:44</a>). The process of sanctification in the Old Testament frequently involves rituals, sacrifices, and adherence to the Law. New Testament Context: In the New Testament, sanctification takes on a more personal and spiritual dimension. It is closely associated with the work of Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. Believers are sanctified through faith in Christ, who offered Himself as a perfect sacrifice for sin. <a href="/hebrews/10-10.htm">Hebrews 10:10</a> states, "And by that will, we have been sanctified through the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ once for all." The Holy Spirit plays a crucial role in the ongoing process of sanctification, transforming believers into the image of Christ. <a href="/1_thessalonians/5-23.htm">1 Thessalonians 5:23</a> expresses this prayer: "Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely, and may your entire spirit, soul, and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ." Theological Significance: Sanctification is both a positional and progressive reality for Christians. Positionally, believers are sanctified at the moment of salvation, set apart as God's own. Progressively, sanctification is the lifelong process of growing in holiness and conformity to Christ's character. This dual aspect is reflected in passages like <a href="/1_corinthians/6-11.htm">1 Corinthians 6:11</a>, which states, "But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God." Practical Implications: The call to sanctification has practical implications for Christian living. Believers are urged to pursue holiness, resist sin, and live in a manner worthy of their calling. <a href="/romans/12.htm">Romans 12:1-2</a> exhorts Christians to present their bodies as living sacrifices and to be transformed by the renewing of their minds. Sanctification involves both divine initiative and human responsibility, as believers cooperate with the Holy Spirit in the process of becoming more like Christ. Key Verses: · <a href="/genesis/2-3.htm">Genesis 2:3</a>: "Then God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because on it He rested from all the work of creation that He had accomplished." · <a href="/exodus/19-6.htm">Exodus 19:6</a>: "And unto Me you shall be a kingdom of priests and a holy nation." · <a href="/hebrews/10-10.htm">Hebrews 10:10</a>: "And by that will, we have been sanctified through the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ once for all." · <a href="/1_thessalonians/5-23.htm">1 Thessalonians 5:23</a>: "Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely, and may your entire spirit, soul, and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ." · <a href="/1_corinthians/6-11.htm">1 Corinthians 6:11</a>: "But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God." · <a href="/romans/12.htm">Romans 12:1-2</a>: "Therefore I urge you, brothers, on account of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God, which is your spiritual service of worship. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind."<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1. (v. t.)
