The Primary Importance of Sanctification (Galatians 4:19–20) John MacArthur

Summary

The sermon focuses on the paramount importance of sanctification, described as Christ being "formed" within believers. Drawing from Paul's anguish in Galatians 4:19-20, it highlights the lifelong work of the Holy Spirit in separating us from sin. The practical takeaway is that while election and justification are foundational, sanctification is the vital doctrine that defines our earthly walk with God, urging believers to embrace this process of becoming Christlike.
