## Chapter 13 - Sanctification
1. Those who are united to Christ and effectually called and regenerated have a new heart and a new spirit created in them through the power of Christ’s death and resurrection. They are also further sanctified, really and personally,<sup>1</sup> through the same power, by his Word and Spirit dwelling in them.<sup>2</sup> The dominion of the whole body of sin is destroyed,<sup>3</sup> and the various evil desires that arise from it are more and more weakened and put to death.<sup>4</sup> At the same time, those called and regenerated are more and more enlivened and strengthened in all saving graces<sup>5</sup> so that they practice true holiness, without which no one will see the Lord.<sup>6</sup>
<sup>1</sup>[Acts 20:32](/get-passage/Acts+20:32); [Romans 6:5-6](/get-passage/Romans+6:5-6)
<sup>2</sup>[John 17:17](/get-passage/John+17:17); [Ephesians 3:16-19](/get-passage/Ephesians+3:16-19); [1 Thessalonians 5:21-23](/get-passage/1+Thessalonians+5:21-23)
<sup>3</sup>[Romans 6:14](/get-passage/Romans+6:14)
<sup>4</sup>[Galatians 5:24](/get-passage/Galatians+5:24)
<sup>5</sup>[Colossians 1:11](/get-passage/Colossians+1:11)
<sup>6</sup>[2 Corinthians 7:1](/get-passage/2+Corinthians+7:1); [Hebrews 12:14](/get-passage/Hebrews+12:14)
2. This sanctification extends throughout the whole person,<sup>7</sup> though it is never completed in this life. Some corruption remains in every part.<sup>8</sup> From this arises a continual and irreconcilable war, with the desires of the flesh against the Spirit and the Spirit against the flesh.<sup>9</sup>
<sup>7</sup>[1 Thessalonians 5:23](/get-passage/1+Thessalonians+5:23)
<sup>8</sup>[Romans 7:18](/get-passage/Romans+7:18), 23
<sup>9</sup>[Galatians 5:17](/get-passage/Galatians+5:17); [1 Peter 2:11](/get-passage/1+Peter+2:11)
3. In this war, the remaining corruption may greatly prevail for a time.<sup>10</sup> Yet through the continual supply of strength from the sanctifying Spirit of Christ, the regenerate part overcomes.<sup>11</sup> So the saints grow in grace, perfecting holiness in the fear of God. They pursue a heavenly life, in gospel obedience to all the commands that Christ as Head and King has given them in his Word.<sup>12</sup>
