Pastor Mike argues against the common misconception that sanctification is primarily the believer's effort (synergistic). Instead, he asserts the technical and proper definition is that sanctification is fundamentally the monergistic work of God's free grace, as the sanctifier, through the Holy Spirit. Mike distinguishes between positional sanctification (set apart at justification) and progressive/practical sanctification (the subsequent process of holy living, dying to sin, and living to righteousness). He emphasizes that a Christian's response to God's work is first by faith—believing they are dead to sin and alive to God in Christ (union with Christ) before yielding the fruit of obedience.
