Q. What does the word “sanctification” mean?

A. To be “sanctified” is to be set apart. “Ye are sanctified” (1 Corinthians 6:11). Every believer is sanctified by the work of the cross of Calvary. “By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all” (Hebrews 10:10).

However, to enjoy and walk in the good of this truth may be quite another matter. We are exhorted to live in separation from this world and with moral purity. “That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honor” (1 Thessalonians 4:4). This is practical sanctification.

In the measure in which we walk in separation from that which is contrary to the Word of God we will be “a vessel unto honor, sanctified, and meet for the Master’s use, and prepared unto every good work” (2 Timothy 2:21).

Peter exhorts us to, “Sanctify the Lord God in your hearts” (1 Peter 3:15). This is to have Him before us as the exclusive object of our affections, and to give Him the first place in our lives.
