Sanctification (Isaac Chanler)
This week John and Chuck discuss the only sermon in Salvation in Full Color preached by a Baptist pastor. We don’t know much about Isaac Chanler, but what we do know is very encouraging. At the heart of the very practical sermon, Chanler encourages believers simple to cling to Christ. This is the heart of sanctification and sanctification is the heart of this sermon.
