Sanctification definition

Sanctification means “to make holy.” Titus 3:5 teaches that one way through which the Holy Spirit makes us holy is “the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit.” Which Sacrament would that be a reference to? [Bible Verse 549]
Sanctification. We believe that sanctification is subsequent to regeneration and is a second definite instantaneous work of grace, obtained by faith on the part of the fully justified believer. Sanctification in a word is the love of God made perfect in the heart of the believer. This is perfection in quality (initially and definitely), but not quantity. The latter comes by progressive growth (Romans 6:6; Hebrews 10:20; Ephesians 4:20-24; ▇▇▇▇▇ 3:5-7). The Baptism of the Holy Spirit We believe that the Pentecostal Baptism of the Holy Spirit is an enduement of power for those who have clean hearts, and the initial evidence of the reception of this experience is speaking with other tongues as the Spirit gives the utterance (Acts 2:1-8). The Ordinances of the Church Baptism in Water We believe that the saved should receive water baptism, in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit as a testimony to the world that he has accepted ▇▇▇▇▇▇ as Savior and Lord (▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 28:19; Colossians 2:12).
Sanctification means the development of that new man. The man who is in Jesus must become more and more like Him. We grow in Christ throughout the rest of our lives. God mercifully accepts us as we are, even while He graciously transforms us into the new creatures He as designed us to be.
