Holiness: Symbolic and Real

a Bible Study
by Joseph Agar Beet, D.D.
FIRST EDITION April 1910

  • Sanctify them in the Truth. . . . On their behalf I sanctify Myself, in order that also they may themselves be sanctified.” Joh 17:17, 19.
  • May the God of peace Himself sanctify you. . . .  Faithful is He who calls you, who also will do it.” 1Th 5:23-24.
