Free to be Holy

Description

In ourselves and by ourselves, sanctification is impossible. As God's grace makes us more and more holy, what is our role, if any? Thankfully, Scripture gives a clear understanding of how to grow in holiness. The pursuit of holiness does not contradict grace; it celebrates it. God provided gospel grace so that His people could become holy. The same grace that frees the believer from the guilt of sin also frees and empowers the believer to pursue holiness. Some of the very best news a child of God could ever hear is that our freedom from sin's bondage also gives us the power to be conformed to the image of our Savior. In a word, the best news is that in Christ we are free to be holy.
