Reflecting Holiness - Showing Love
“Growing in Holiness” by R. C. Sproul offers the maturing Christian a wonderful glimpse into the process of sanctification offered to us through Christ Jesus. In a clear expression of Biblical theology, Sproul moves us from the moment of justification into the process of sanctification, challenging all those who follow Christ to pursue holiness diligently. In this pursuit, through the grace and guidance of the Holy Spirit we will come to reflect God as we are meant to. In Genesis, God declares that all of humanity is created in His image. This means that our duty is to point people toward worshipping/serving God. In our own corruption we fail to reflect God and fail to point people toward God. God sends Christ to restore us to this image. This image is best seen as we pursue righteousness. We pursue righteousness through loving God and loving other people in reflection of God. This small and accessible text beautifully presents this theology and challenges all those who follow Christ to allow His righteousness to shine through as we pursue a life lived in love.
