A Savior Focused Sanctification (Greg E. Gifford, PhD)

Hebrews teaches us that we are to lay aside our sin and focus on our Savior. Yes, to repent of sin and run from it is part of sanctification (Eph. 4:22). But the focus of our sanctification is not our sins, its Jesus, our Savior. When you meditate on your sins, you sin more. When you meditate on your Savior, you grow in conformity to His image. Let 2 Corinthians 3:18 remind you that transformation happens when we behold the glory of Jesus, not of our sins. Thus, we put off sin and focus on our Savior.
