When by faith in Christ we stand before the law as forgiven and righteous, the law no longer binds us to that old master. Sin has no more power to hold us. Deliverance from sin's power is therefore the inevitable result of deliverance from sin's guilt. In the Matter of Holiness. We must not forget, however, that the life of heaven begins in the life of holiness here and now.
Sanctification is glorification begun.
Heaven is access into God's presence. It is to partake of His holiness and to participate in His life. In the Fall man lost all those rights and privileges. A sinner has no right to participate in God's life of holiness. There are giants to beat us, nets to catch us, and crafty men to beguile us.
