John 13:6-11, The Continued Cleansing of Sin

What does foot-washing signify? How is the believer who is completely clean to be washed still? In this sermon, we examine the biblical doctrine of salvation, namely, the doctrines of justification, sanctification, and glorification. We zero in on the import of the second of these. While the justified believer does not wallow in sin, issues of sin are still present because he is not yet glorified and is being sanctified. In the process of sanctification, the continued cleansing of sin is necessary, demands confession, and results in repentance and transformation by the Holy Spirit.
