I have a lot of sections highlighted through this lesson. What a great reminder to be a living sacrifice (or present our bodies as a living sacrifice) before being transformed by the renewing of your mind before knowing God’s perfect, pleasing will! This is a great reminder for me…

The definition “to declare righteous”—notice it says on the basis of what Jesus Christ has done—not “to make righteous.” Do you know that in statements of faith at […]

I think I would like this course if I get to take it. I’m curious, does sanctification also mean the process in which we are made righteous or is the righteousness only in Jesus because he is righteous?

In reply to - Pieter van der Merwe posted an update

In Paul’s writings, he seems to connect being forgiven, cleansed, justified, and sanctified as all referring to the conversion of the individual.

I need His rhema word in my life daily. I am thankful for any insights that He gives me. I am also reminded of “be doers of the Word and not just hearers.” – easier said than done, but I am getting better. I am hoping to continue to learn and grow in this course. I am…
