Agent of Sanctification
Trinitarian Work
Sanctification · 6 verses
Sanctification manifests the cooperative work of the Triune God, as the Father elects and calls, the Son redeems and intercedes, and the Holy Spirit applies and transforms. This threefold operation, though distinguished according to person and office, constitutes one undivided work of grace wherein each divine person contributes to the believer's progressive conformity to Christ's image.
