Sanctification
As followers of Christ, to be sanctified is our lifelong task.
To reach forward by faith to the prize of our calling in Him,
endeavouring to live a life that pleases Him; doing all that He asks.
Submitting to the leading of the Spirit as we seek to serve Him.
We are sanctified ‘set apart’, primarily to give glory to our God,
acknowledging at all times His faithfulness, power and majesty,
declaring therefore, with confidence, that He is the only true God,
The Lord Jesus Christ His Son the sole object of our loyalty
We are to be set apart also by the deeds that we do for the Lord;
caring for the poor, seeking for justice and assisting the weak,
displaying the right attitudes to all in obedience to the Word
For by our love they may come to know Him of whom it is we speak.
As those who are being sanctified we therefore grow day by day,
changing from one degree of glory to another as long as we shall live.
Sharing the gospel message, telling of God’s love and His grace;
Christ having paid the price for our sin so that we through Him might live.
