Together We Grow

Together We Grow

This week, Pastor Nathan Wakefield challenges us to consider that we need to grow in Christlikeness by participating with the Holy Spirit within the body of Christ known as the church. Video of the worship service is available beginning Sunday at 9:30 AM at https://southviewbaptist.org/live.

Locations & Times

Southview Baptist Church

3434 S 13th St, Lincoln, NE 68502, USA

Sunday 9:30 AM

1. Justification implies sanctification.

• Don't be an evangelical Antinomian (Romans 6:14).
• Make holiness a priority (1 Peter 1:13‑16).
• Anticipate perfective sanctification (1 John 3:1‑3).

Action: Determine to make sanctification a priority. Prepare your mind. Be sober. Set your hope. Do not conform to evil. Be holy.
2. Sanctification not self‑help.

• Don't drink the self‑help Kool‑Aid (Romans 6:4‑6).
• Do the math (Romans 6:11).
• Participate in your sanctification, don't try to lead it yourself (Romans 6:13‑14; Gal 5:16‑18).

Action: Join with the Holy Spirit as a participant in your sanctification.
3. Sanctification occurs as part of the body.

• The Holy Spirit is the catalyst. The local church is a beaker (Hebrews 10:24‑25).
• Under‑shepherds care for and protect (1 Peter 5:1‑5).
• Members practice Christ‑likeness within the church (Romans 12:9‑13).

Action: Commit to sanctification within the body.
