"Genuine sanctification follows the channel of Bible truth.
--It is not grounded on flights of feeling, but on the immutable truths of God's word.
--It is the truth received through the mind, and practically carried out in the life.
When the truth is thus received and carried out, there is a radical work, a change indeed; and those who receive and obey the truth are not destitute of good feeling.
*Some would try to evade the truth with the idea that they have
the Spirit, and consequently the sanctification of the Spirit.
Q: But what is the leading office of the Spirit that sanctifies?
A: It is to guide into the truth. Said Christ, "When he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth." Jno. xvii, 13.
The Spirit and the truth agree. The Spirit is the great agent that God employs in sanctifying men." D. T. BOURDEAU
