Why is the concept of being sanctified important for Christians?

Answered in 1 source

Being sanctified signifies that believers are made holy through Christ's offering, establishing their status before God.

Sanctification is a pivotal concept for Christians because it affirms that, through Jesus' sacrifice, they are made holy and set apart for God's purposes. Hebrews 10 states that believers are sanctified by the offering of Jesus Christ once for all, which means their acceptance before God is not based on their works or efforts but solely on Christ's righteousness. This truth encourages believers to live out their sanctified identity, entrusting their spiritual growth to the work of the Holy Spirit.
