Series Overview
We can understand the gospel message, even have accepted Jesus as our Savior, and still be confused over certain words. In this series, we’ll dig into some common ones to help define some hard-to-understand words. When we understand confusing or unfamiliar words, we can better grasp God’s Word and grow deeper in our faith.
Lesson Overview
When we accept Christ as our Lord and Savior, we instantly receive the gift of justification. It’s “just as if I” never sinned.
And while our salvation is secure from that decision, each day of our lives the Holy Spirit is working to help us become more like Jesus. This is called sanctification.
One is an instant, the other a process. Together, they help achieve our redemption: the action of being saved from sin.
