Morning Devotional: The Trinity and Sanctification

The Chuck Spurgeon Project

AM Edition for July 12

In this morning's episode, Chuck Spurgeon welcomes listeners to start their day with a reflective and prayerful exploration of Scripture. The focus is on the harmonious cooperation of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit in the process of sanctification.

Key Scriptures:

• Jude 1
• 1 Corinthians 1:2
• 1 Peter 1:2

Main Points:

1. Unified Work of the Trinity: The episode emphasizes that all three Persons of the Trinity—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—work together in the act of sanctification. It is a collective effort, and each Person of the Trinity is equally involved in the believer's journey towards holiness.

2. Avoiding Preferences: Chuck cautions against showing preference for one Person of the Trinity over another. Some may view Jesus as solely gracious, while seeing the Father as stern or neglecting the Spirit's work. All three Persons are united in their gracious acts and should be equally honored and recognized.

3. True Holiness: The value of true holiness is highlighted, with the Three Persons of the Trinity working together to produce a Church that is pure and blameless. Believers are encouraged to appreciate and manifest the sanctifying work of the Triune God in their lives.

4. Living in Holiness: Listeners are urged to live in a way that reflects the sanctifying work of the Trinity. This includes valuing the blood of Christ and the Spirit's work in preparing believers for their heavenly inheritance.

Closing: Chuck encourages listeners to subscribe and share the podcast, wishing them grace and peace for the day ahead. He reminds them to remain steadfast in their faith, appreciating the unified work of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit in their lives.
