Holiness: For the Will of God Is Your Sanctification – 1 Thessalonians 4:3 [Annotated, Updated]

by J.C. Ryle

Let us study the lives of its leading champions – men such as Wycliffe, Huss, Luther, Ridley, Latimer, and Hooper. Let us see how these gallant soldiers of Christ stood firm against a host of adversaries and were ready to die for their principles. What battles they fought! What controversies they maintained! What contradiction they endured! What tenacity of purpose they exhibited against a world in arms! Let us remember that believing in an unseen Jesus was the secret of their strength. They overcame by faith.
