Sanctification in the Everyday by John Piper - 50 pages



Three classic Piper sermons on the subject of sanctification in e-book form.  Great, soul-feeding truth.  Get it free here!

"...in every case, the decisive impulse for our holiness and our sin-killing is the death of Christ.  Which means that the decisive power for our conquering sin is Christ's canceling sin.  That is, the only sin that we can defeat is a forgiven sin."

"By the world's standards we may accomplish much without Christ (like build an institution, or produce a blockbuster movie).  But from God's perspective, without Christ our lives are like little, shriveled, fruitless twigs."

"Sin can't enslave a person who is utterly confident and sure and hope-filled in the infinite happiness of life with Christ in the future."
