Arnett, William M. “The role of the Holy Spirit in entire sanctification in the writings of John Wesley.” The Asbury Journal 29, no. 2 (1974): 3.

“For without the Holy Spirit, there is neither justification nor sanctification…”

This aspect reiterates the vitality of the Holy Spirit in the process of sanctification. God gave the gift of the Spirit to be a helper for Christians in their Christian experience. More than this, the Spirit works to reconcile the Christian with God each time.

Coe, John. “Spiritual theology: A theological-experiential methodology for bridging the sanctification gap.” Journal of spiritual formation and soul care 2, no. 1 (2009): 4-43.

“Many Christians do not know, or fail to understand, the implication of a sanctified life.”

This part reiterates that there is a gap between what many Christians may understand sanctification to mean. This gap has to be bridged if sanctification is to be meaningful in their lives. This is where the Christian leaders come in, to help these people understand the full extent of a sanctified life.

“Sanctification is evident not only through the behaviour but also through the manner in which one honours God in his or her body.”

The aspect seen here is that sanctification transforms everything, even the body. The sanctified one then has to honour God in what they eat, drink and how their body is used. This then has to be preserved for the glory of God.

Mahoney, Annette, Kenneth I. Pargament, Aaron Murray-Swank, and Nichole Murray-Swank. “Religion and the sanctification of family relationships.” Review of religious research (2003): 220-236.

“There has to be a manifestation of God in marriage, parent-child relationships and sexuality…”

Sanctification transforms how one relates with their own family. The family has to see how the sanctified believer changes his engagement with them. The difference comes in how they are treated, talked to, guided and taught.

Pargament, Kenneth I., and Annette Mahoney. “THEORY:” Sacred Matters: Sanctification as a Vital Topic for the Psychology of Religion”.” The International Journal for the Psychology of Religion 15, no. 3 (2005): 179-198.

“For the Christian has to invest time, energy and be devoted to that which they understand as sacred.”

This reiterates the manner in which sanctification leads to perpetual devotion. This devotion involves sacrificing the time and energy one has to walk with God. It draws from the fact that sanctification has to inspire a believer. The inspired believer does all it takes to protect the divinity of their belief.

Priyatna, Novel. “Peran guru Kristen sebagai agen restorasi dan rekonsiliasi dalam mengembangkan karakter Kristus pada diri remaja sebagai bagian dari proses pengudusan [The role of Christian educator as agent of restoration and reconciliation in developing Christ-like character in adolescence as part of the sanctification process].” Polyglot: Jurnal Ilmiah 13, no. 1 (2017): 1-10.

“The Christian educator teaches, guides and sets an example for the young Christian”

This article argues for the role of educators in helping young believers develop. To progressively grow, the young Christians depend on the lessons and examples that their teachers set for them. Their sanctified experience cannot be better when their teachers abdicate their duty.

Stettler, Hanna. “Sanctification in the Jesus tradition.” Biblica (2004): 153-178.

“For Jesus offered sanctification through healing, cleansing and teaching on living a holy life.”

Through this part, it is clear that sanctification has to be a work in progress. It has to be seen in the manner in which the sanctified believer lives their lives, progressively working towards a complete union with God.

Story, Lyle. “Pauline Thoughts about the Holy Spirit and Sanctification: Provision, Process, and Consummation.” Journal of entecostal theology 18, no. 1 (2009): 67-94.

“Through Jesus, we are reconciled to God the father. His death was the onset of our sanctification.”

This involves the assertion that the Triune God works together for sanctification to occur. Without his death, there was no way believers would get to be sanctified at all. Sanctification then is a process that was in line with the design of salvation that J
