· Justification is the Father’s legal pronouncement that a believer in Christ is forever righteous and acceptable to Himself

· Justification has two aspects: forgiveness and righteousness (Romans 8:1, Philippians 3:9)

· Justification is based not on our righteousness, but rather on the basis that God declares that Jesus righteousness belongs to us (2 Corinthians 5:21)

· Justification is experienced through faith in Jesus Christ, not by works (Romans 3:24)

· All believers have been justified forever (Hebrews 10:14)

· Justification is our position, our identity in Jesus!

· Sanctification is a progressive work of God and man that makes us more and more free from sin and like Christ in our lives

· Sinless perfection in this life is not the goal of sanctification (1 John 1:8)

· Sanctification is a work of both God and believer (Philippians 2:12-13)

· Sanctification affects the whole of who we are

· Sanctification leads to a fullness of life in Christ

· If you confuse Sanctification with Justification you move towards a works based salvation with no security or no lack of pride

· If you confuse Justification with Sanctification you move towards a passive, meandering, powerless Christian life

· Glorification speaks of our ultimate salvation in the presence of Jesus

· Glorification is the promise to all who have been justified (Romans 8:30)

· The day of glorification is the day we live for expectantly
