- I've said several times, if I were ever asked to preach at a moment's notice, I would preach Romans 5.1, having been justified by faith we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.
- 00:20
- So that is a passage, now that we've read it together, I would encourage it to your memorization.
- 00:30
- But we're going to move on in the book.
- 00:33
- If you don't have your confessional book, you won't be able to read along.
- 00:38
- But if you have a phone or internet, you can look it up.
- 00:42
- We're going to look at Article 29.

- And I want to remind you that the headings from this book were not part of the original document.
- 00:54
- These headings have been put in by the ones who created this booklet.
- 01:00
- So the original brothers who wrote the 1644 and then the edition that we look at, the 1646 Confession, did not put these headings in.
- 01:11
- So when Brother Andy tonight was speaking on justification, yes, we believe that's what that is about.
- 01:17
- But that heading was added later.
- 01:19
- And the same goes for what I'm going to be looking at tonight, is sanctification.
- 01:25
- And I do want to sort of begin, before we read the Confession, I just want to clarify something that I think is important, and I think many of you may know this, but just in case you don't, when we talk about salvation, we often talk about salvation as something that has already happened, something that is happening, and something that will happen.
- 01:52
- And the terms we use are we are saved, we are being saved, and we will be saved.
