As with all other doctrines of salvation, justification is available because of the atoning sacrifice of Christ, but it becomes operative in the life of an individual only on conditions of personal righteousness . We are justified by the death and blood of Jesus Christ. Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law. A Mormon scripture also has a similar message, but for some reason it is ignored. We Are Sanctified By Jesus Christ Mormon Apostle Bruce R. McConkie in speaking about sanctification continues to place the burden on Mormons.
Sanctification is a personal reward that follows personal righteousness .
The biblical message again is different. The Bible teaches that perfection, now, in this life, is possible through the sanctification of our Lord Jesus Christ. For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified . Only one conclusion is possible. The Bible is telling us we can be perfect in this life, in the eyes of God, because of our faith in Jesus Christ and his grace.
