Michael Reeves: Saints of God

Summary

This sermon addresses the common misunderstanding of holiness, explaining that it is not an achievement of human behavior but a state bestowed by God, as evidenced in scripture like 1 Corinthians 1:2. God declares believers "saints" and "sanctified" not because of their actions, but because Christ Himself became their righteousness and sanctification. Therefore, true holiness is found in boasting only in the Lord and in realizing that Christ’s sacrifice has already set believers apart.
