If you believe in Jesus Christ, you have eternal life. Through faith in Jesus, you have been sanctified; you have been made holy. This means that you have been set apart for God as His possession, you’ve been cleaned, and you have been made perfect. But though through Christ’s one sacrifice you have been made perfect forever, you need His help to take hold of and enjoy that perfection here on earth. If you believe in Jesus, you are His forever. If you would like to really experience what that’s like on this side of heaven, it’s going to require you to live God’s way. And Jesus can absolutely help you with that! Sanctification comes through Christ alone.

Bible Verses:

  • Hebrews 10:14 – Perfected for all time those being made holy
  • John 13:1-17 – Jesus washes His disciples’ feet
  • Romans 6:19 – Righteousness leading to sanctification
  • 1 Corinthians 1:30 – Christ is our sanctification

Family Time Questions:

  • What does it mean that believers have BEEN sanctified?
  • What does it mean that believers are BEING sanctified?
  • What must you do to have eternal life?
  • Why should we do what is right, even though believers have already been sanctified?

Prayer:

“Dear God, thank You for sanctifying us through faith in Jesus; thank You for making us Your own. Help us to follow You so we can take hold of the perfection we have through You. In Jesus’ name, Amen.”
