SANCTIFICATION :- "In the present, God guides us to maturity, a practical, progressive holiness" 3. GLORIFICATION :- "In the future, God will give us glorification, a permanent, ultimate holiness"
"To summarize, “sanctification” is a translation of the Greek wordhagiasmos, meaning “holiness” or “a separation.” In the past, God granted us justification, a once-for-all, positional holiness in Christ. In the present, God guides us to maturity, a practical, progressive holiness. In the future, God will give us glorification, a permanent, ultimate holiness. These three phases of sanctification separate the believer from the penalty of sin (justification), the power of sin (maturity), and the presence of sin (glorification)."
