PART II: You Must Be Born-Again

Justification, Sanctification, And Glorification

There are three phases in God’s plan for the born-again believer’s eternal life. Recognizing which phase you are in will help you achieve a victory over the flesh. Sanctification starts immediately after a person is born-again i.e. after justification by the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, God the Son. Sanctification is the process of delivering a borne-again Christ from the power of sin. To achieve your victory over pornography, look to God your Creator through the process of sanctification.

Phase 1: Justification
Delivered from the penalty of sin, evil
When man sinned he was under the penalty of sin which is spiritual death. Jesus Christ’s sinless life and His sacrificial death on the cross delivered born again Christians from the penalty of sin. God defeated evil at the cross.

Phase 2: Sanctification
Delivered from the power of sin, evil
When born again Christians are led by the indwelling Holy Spirit they are delivered from the power of sin.

Phase 3: Glorification
Delivered from the presence of sin, evil
When God gives born again Christians a new glorified human body they will be delivered from the presence of sin for eternity.
