Day 22 "Saved and Sanctified"
Good Morning Beauties!
We have a double blessing today. Let's look at how we are Saved and how we are Sanctified, and what God wants us to know about both.
Saved, "to keep safe or rescue (someone or something) from harm or danger." In most Christian churches I've been to, the idea of being saved means a person has made a decision to repent of their sins and follow Jesus. "She believes in Jesus, she's saved." And while yes, this is True, if we look at the definition in relation to what Jesus did for us, he Rescued us from the greatest danger there is....eternal damnation.
I've often thought, as indescribably good as Heaven is, Hell is indescribably bad. We really can't fathom the blessing of Heaven or the curse of Hell, but Jesus has rescued us from Hell so that we may dwell with Him in Heaven for eternity. Hallelujah! Selah.
Now that we are rescued, we must be sanctified. "set apart as or declare holy; consecrate." There is much to be said about sanctification, and I have included a link to a study of Romans 6 below. Please consider reviewing the study throughout the week to gain a better knowledge along with the Truth God is revealing to you.
Love and Blessings,
Kendra
