New City Catechism Question Thirty-Two
Summary
In this conversation, Pastor Jon discusses the concepts of justification and sanctification. Justification refers to our declared righteousness before God, made possible by Christ's death and resurrection. Sanctification, on the other hand, is our gradual growing righteousness, enabled by the work of the Holy Spirit. While justification happens at the moment of conversion, sanctification is a lifelong process. Pastor John emphasizes that although we will never be completely sanctified in this life, we will see growth and become more like Jesus every day.
Takeaways
Justification is our declared righteousness before God, made possible by Christ's sacrifice.
Sanctification is the ongoing process of growing in righteousness through the work of the Holy Spirit.
We will never be completely sanctified in this life, but we will see growth and become more like Jesus.
God's love for us is not based on our perfection, but on Jesus' perfection.
