SSBT: Sanctification as Set Apart and Growing in Christ

The entire biblical narrative declares the righteousness of God and the consecration of his people. In this book, Marny Köstenberger explores the topic of sanctification—being set apart by God for holiness. Surveying the Bible from beginning to end, Köstenberger shows that sanctificationis grounded in the eternal holiness of God, who created humanity in his image. Now, in Christ, the Spirit sets believers apart and restores them to the original image. Sanctification often takes place in the midst of suffering and equips believers for their God-given mission.
