Text: 1 John 3
Hymn: 633, At the Lamb’s High Feast We Sing
Kretzmann Commentary: 1 John 3
Bonus Bumper: Maranatha, Behold What Manner of Love
If we are “weak on santification,” it is our Old Adam who is weak on its own sanctification. The New Adam, daily rising out of baptism, makes no practice of sin but hopes in God, believing in the atonement on the cross for his righteousness. The Holy Spirit calls, gathers, enlightens, and sanctifies the whole Christian church on earth — and He is not weak.
Special thanks to Sam Mussmann for singing with us this week.
