Sanctification

Excerpt: Scripturally, the word sanctification has three meanings: First, separation; second, dedication; third, spirit­filling. Webster’s definition of it is as follows: “1. Sanctification is the act of God’s grace by which the affections of man are purified, or alienated from sin and the world, and exalted to a supreme love of God; also, the state of being thus purified or sanctified. 2. The act of consecrating, or setting apart for a sacred purpose.”
