Verse: “This is the will of God, even your sanctification.” – I Thessalonians 4:3
Quote: “[Sanctification] means being made one with Jesus.”
I don’t think it can be put more simply than that. Our goal as Christians is to become as closely resembling Jesus Christ as possible. He lived the perfect life and left the blueprint behind for us to follow. Not only that, He continues to personally help us follow that blueprint. The more our lives resemble the life of Christ, the more we resemble God, and the closer we are to His will.
