Why It Matters
Sanctification is not optional—it is the visible evidence of the life of Christ in you. In everything you say and do, let others hear and see Him. Be ready to give an answer to anyone who asks about your new attitude and how you have changed and the hope you have, speaking with gentleness and respect just as Christ would do (1 Peter 3:15).
And never be ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to all who believe.
