Salvation
What does John 3:16 say
“For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.”
Who offered the ultimate sacrifice in the Bible?
Jesus Christ offered Himself as the perfect sacrifice for sin (see Hebrews 10:10).
What is Jesus’ role in sanctification?
Jesus makes sanctification possible by saving us and giving us a new life.
What is sin?
Sin is anything that goes against God’s will or commands.
Who is sanctification for?
Sanctification is for all believers in Jesus Christ.
What is salvation?
Salvation is being saved from sin and its consequences through faith in Jesus Christ.
What were sacrifices used for in the Old Testament?
They were used for worship, giving thanks, and covering sin (see Leviticus 17:11).
Why is Jesus necessary for sanctification?
Without Jesus, people cannot overcome sin or become truly holy. He is the source of spiritual life (see Hebrews 10:10).
How does sin affect sanctification?
Sin slows down spiritual growth and makes it harder to become more like Christ.
How is sanctification different from justification?
Justification is being declared righteous by God, while sanctification is the ongoing process of becoming righteous in daily life (see Romans 5:1).
How are we saved?
By grace through faith in Jesus—not by our own works
What kind of sacrifices are believers called to give today?
Not animal sacrifices, but living sacrifices—offering their lives, actions, and hearts to God (see Romans 12:1).
How do Jesus’ death and resurrection relate to sanctification?
His death removes the penalty of sin, and His resurrection gives believers new life to grow in holiness (see Romans 6:4).
Does sin stop a believer from being sanctified?
No, but it can hinder progress. God still works in believers to help them grow when they repent (see 1 John 1:9).
What is the ultimate goal of sanctification?
The goal is to become fully like Christ and reflect God’s holiness completely (see 1 Thessalonians 5:23).
Is salvation earned or given?
Salvation is a gift from God, not something we earn. It comes by grace through faith (see Ephesians 2:8–9).
What does it mean that obedience is better than sacrifice?
God values a heart that obeys Him more than outward religious actions without sincerity (see 1 Samuel 15:22).
Why is Jesus necessary for sanctification?
Without Jesus, people cannot overcome sin or become truly holy. He is the source of spiritual life (see Hebrews 10:10).
What should a believer do when they sin during sanctification?
They should confess, repent, and turn back to God, allowing Him to restore and continue their growth (see Proverbs 28:13).
If sanctification is God’s work, why are believers still responsible for it?
Sanctification is a partnership—God empowers it through the Holy Spirit, but believers actively choose obedience and discipline (see Philippians 2:12–13).
What role does Jesus play in salvation?
Jesus is the only way to salvation—His death and resurrection make forgiveness possible (see John 14:6).
How does sacrifice relate to daily Christian living?
It means denying selfish desires, serving others, and living in a way that honors God—even when it costs something (see Luke 9:23).
Is sanctification something Jesus does alone, or do believers participate too?
It is both—Jesus empowers sanctification, but believers must actively obey and follow Him daily (see Philippians 2:12–13).
Why does sin still exist in believers if they are being sanctified?
Because sanctification is a process—believers still struggle with sinful nature while the Holy Spirit is transforming them (see Galatians 5:17).
What is the role of the Word of God in sanctification?
Scripture shapes beliefs, corrects sin, and trains believers in righteousness (see 2 Timothy 3:16–17).
