"Ignite" - Sanctification, Faith, and Repentance

That means we are made holy by the propitiation of Christ's blood instantly when we confess our sins and proclaim Him as Lord of our lives. We are forever forgiven and saved by him from the wrath of God in which we so appropriately deserve. Our sanctification is not only instant, but progressive. As Christians we grow daily by becoming like Him and longing to know more about Him. When we become like Him we become holy just as He himself is Holy.

Journey Through Values: Truth//Adam Sheffield

Truth seems like an obvious value, an age-old archetype that any religious organization would have, but imagine if a religion promoted itself by saying “Falsehoods and lies are what we value!” Four words for that: Re-donk-u-lus! But beyond that obvious shot in the foot, why is it that we would value truth? more...
