L 4 SANCTIFICATION Text: “Not that I have already ob tained, or am already made perfect; but 1 press on, if so be that I may lay hold on that for which 1 also was },'”l% hold on by Christ Jesus.”—FPhil For a long period of time the great subject of sanctification has been ob scured in the dust and smoke of an incessant warfare that its friends and enemies have waged about it. Logo machical disputes and continuous polemical discussions have caused peo ple to prick up their ears and put on their thinking caps when even the ‘name 1s mentioned. Pity it is that such conflicts, preju dices and thoughtless actions and asser tions should have crept in from time to time, and have brought this splendid Bible doctrine into such disfavor. Sanctification and perseverance are but the two sides, the divine and hu man, of the same fact, and oftentime our thinking is so cloudy and foggy that we mistake the one for the other; viewed from the divine side its advo cates have claimed sinless perfection, and thus man's work and part bas been exchanged for divinitv; viewed from the human standpoint it has often led men to believe that they could not be perfect and therefore excused them selves as they followed the lusts of the flesh and the pride and pleasures of life and continued in open sin. All Christians fully recognize that our Lord Jesus while here on earth did a two-fold work. He came to seek and to save the lost, or to bring about a per fect and complete reconciliation be tween God and man, and also to com plete in us the work which He had commenced against that day, which is sanctification, or the continuous work of the Holy Spirit in our hearts—bring ing us mgre and more into the full likeness of our great example, even the Lord Jesus.' Reconciliation between God and man is made perfect in Christ Jesus. This no one doubts. It has never been questioned. This is the work of Christ, who never did an im perfect work. The other is the growth and completion of the human life and goes on from height to height until we awake satisfied with His likeness. Safety and Soundness. After all the average man has not been up to the present thinking and expressing his thoughts in very clear terms. A man may be a safe business man and not be sound. One may be able to accumulate millions and yet be physicaily weak. Here goes a great vessel ploughing her way through the waves of the Atlantic, she makes trip after trip. One day the captain is no tified that some repairs must be made before many trips are taken. Finally she is carried into dry dock for repairs, safe, of course, but not sound. So with a man—he may be safe and not sound, or else why did John in writing to Christians, those who had been re deemed, say if we confess our sins, He will forgive them and that His blood will cleanse us from all sin? Dwelling and Reigning. IPaul rises to heights of perfection when he says in Romans 6:12: ‘‘Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ve should obey the lusts thereof.” As long as our bodies are miortal, yvea, even until by the grace of God this corruptible shall have put on incorrup tion, sin is liable to dwell in us, but not to reign, for Jesus has broken the dominion of sin and it can after his entrance have no longer reigning pow er in the soul of man. Sin occasionally, like a guest, may come in, but not re main as does the owner of the house. As long as there is life there is war fare. We underestimate the power of the devil if we feel that as long as we are here on this earth he will give us up and allow us fo think perfect thoughts and do perfect righteouesness. After ail, =sin ard an impropsr concep tion of sin has led us into a great many errors. \What we greatly need in this generation is a proper conception of the exceeding sinfulness of sin. Then, too, there are not only sins of com mission, such as murder and lying, for rvication, adultery, stealing, gambling, and a host of others, but there are sins of omission, and the things we have left undone that ought to have been done are often more numerous than | the other class. | Paul recognized this when he gaid: | “For the gaod that 1 would I /o not, but | the evil that I would not that I do.” If then the great aposile to the Gen tiles did evil and inclined in that dh'w--‘ tion, how can we who are far behind him in experience and grace hope to be perfect in the midst of an imperfect environment? Jesus was—-but he alone was. ‘““There is none good but God."” I have a goad friend who is mission ary to Brazil. Not long since in lhe‘ privacy of my home he was mlkingl about the missionary work, its joys und‘ its sorrows, and in the cgnversation he spoke concerning the language. Uf‘ course he had ceased to speak English in his regular work among the natives, and said he: “I even think in the Portuguese language now.” So in this life, surrounded by sin on every side, we may not hope to escape -the in fluerce of the evil one, and two men will continue to strive for dominion—the Christ and the devil. Oh! My friends, do not imagine for a moment that the devil is going to give up the struggle as long as there is life, but realize that we gradually grow into the language, customs, habits of the land of light, and slowly, oh, =o slowly, do we get away from the native tongue rlo which we bave been accustomed for years and years, l Stop and congider with me for a mo- ATLANTA PROVISION MARKET.

But suppose you go back there and twenty years after find that there has been no growth and that the child has remained a child and has not grown in the grace and knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ. Wouldn't it be sad? The new birth is perfect. Christ’s work of saving is perfect. He performs no im perfect work, but remember that birth and growth are two different things en tirely, Look out there at the tiny little peach that is scarcely as large as the tip of your finger. Green and sour and small and not mature. Go there in the sum mer‘rnd see it, red and ripe and sweet and Tuscious. A perfect peach as soon as the blossom was shed, but not a ma ture peach and a sweet, luscious one, So in regeneration there is the salva tion, perfect and complete. but not the sanctification by any means. That we have not vet attained. That we press forward to attain. Ephesians iv:ls, the Apostle says, ‘Speaking the truth in love, may grow ap in all things into him, which is the head even Christ.”” There is the idea of growth, study, development, increase in first bearing. Phil. i:6, “Confident of this very thing, that He which began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Jesus Christ.” Instrumentality of Holy Spirit. Tim. 1:14: ‘*That good thing which was committed unto thee guard through the Holy Ghost” which dwelleth in us.” Our bodies are his temples. He lives in us. How then can men excuse them seives in sin, and go on living the old life, not growing and attaining unto the likeness of the Saviour who loved us and gave Himeself for us. The higher up we get in our Christian experience the more we need the Holy Spirit. The closer we get to the purity and holiness of God the more thoroughly censcious are we of our imperfections and sins and the less inclined are we to boast of our gocdness. Isaiah, sixth chapter: The priest in the temple about his daily ministrations, when suddenly the pres ence of the Lord was manifest and then the servant cried out in the pres ence of Cherubiin and Seraphim and the Holy One, *“Woe is me, for I am un done, for I am a man of unclean lips and dwe!ll in the midst of a people of unelean lips.” We are not already made perfect, but press on if we may apprehend that for which we were ap p:ehended and grow daily more and more like Him who loved us and gave Himself for us and washed us in His own blood and will one day, when earth's ties are severed, give us an abundant entrance into glory and then we shall be satizfied and sanctified wholly. Per fect but not sound, through Christ's im plied righteousness. God’'s Holiness, The holiness of God is inherent. He is a God of justice as well as of love and mercy. His every act is naturaliy the result of law and this law is fixed, unalterable. A low view of God's law will enable almost any one to feel that he ean Kkeep it. [ could take Stone Mountain and sling it aeross a couple of lots if it were small enough, or jf I were large ecnough, but the law of gravitation is such I can not do it God's law is perfect. Sin is contrary to Geod's law, but when we view sin as a light matter, when we think of it as man sees it and not as Cod sees it, we make a grievous mistake. Cod’'s holiness causes him to see sin as it is and not as we see it And when sin came into the world it wrought its dreadful effect not only upon the body of man and made it sus ceptible to sickness and weakness, but it also affected the will, and one can no more in this life be spiritually per fect than be can be physically perfect. Well, says some one, was not Job per fect? Well; was he? Is the man who is covered with boils perfect? lls the man who has to defend himself before his friends perfect? ~Job's intentiors were perfect. He wanted to do right, He made mistakes, but through them all he wanted to do what was pleas ing to God. David was a man after God's own heart, but was David per fect? Take all the Scripture characters— Abraham, Peter, Paul, John, Mark, and a host of others. They were not per fect, but they have since attained anrd laid hold of perfection in God's ap pointed time and way. Man looketh on the outward appear ance and thinks one may be perfect. God looks on the heart and knows all cur frailties and weaknesses and imperfec tions, Perfection should be our standard, We may live free possibly from any fla. grant crime, a fault which is percepti bLle to the eyes of the world, but the eye of divinity is upon us. IHe knows the inward parts. He knows the mind of nman. The Psalmist says, ‘I have seen an end of all perfection; but Thy command ment is exceeding broad. No one can lay claim to entire fanc tification in this life, but it is equally as great a sin to swing from spiritual pride to sensual indulgence and Keep on swinging and letting the evil one have dominion. May the God of all grace abide richly fn all of our hearts in the presence of the Holy Spirit and lead us into all truth and all =ervice until finally we shall seée the King in His beauty, spot less, holy and altoaether righteous, and then in His presence we shall be satis fied.
