The moment you accepted Jesus’ gift of salvation, you were set apart. Just like sheep are separated from among the goats, you became part of a different flock. And Pastor Jeff teaches that as part of the flock of Jesus, you go through different trials and challenges than those around you. But the end goal of your time on this earth is for you to be sanctified over time. As your life more closely imitates the life of Jesus, the power of sin will have less and less of a grip on your life.
