ON SANCTIFICATION =
RANDALL GLEASON -

Excerpt:
Over the past decade evangelical theologians have authored a number of
books advocating diverse and even divergent perspectives on the work of
sancti˜cation.1 Among these competing models, perhaps the hardest fought
battle has been between conventional Calvinism and what for lack of a
better term might be called the Chaferian view.2 These two approaches agree
on a number of points: that sanctfication involves both the sovereign grace of
the Holy Spirit and the willing response of the individual believer, that the
experience of sanctification is progressive, that sinless perfection is attained
only in the glorified state of heaven and not in this present life, and that the
believer is eternally secure from the moment of regeneration.3 Nevertheless
several significant differences remain. --from the first page of the article
