The Gospel Mystery of Sanctification: Growing in Holiness by Living in Union with Christ

The Gospel Mystery of Sanctification by Walter Marshall first published in 1692 is one of the classic works of Christian spirituality. It is a deep and rich biblical study of sanctification - how Christians grow in holiness and become more like Jesus. In a day when Christians are very prone to pursue self-help methods to grow in obedience to Christ Walter Marshall lays out the biblical way of growth: obedience comes as Christians live by grace in union with Christ by faith. Growth comes as Paul says in Galatians 2:20 through Christ living in me. The message of this book is so important for Christians today it is essential that it be rewritten in contemporary English.
