He Must Increase
What is God’s will for the believer’s life? According to Scripture, the answer is clear: your sanctification. In this Theology Tuesday episode of Let’s Talk with Rocky Stevenson Pastor of Benoni Bible Church, we explore holiness not as abstract theory, but as lived theology—worked out in everyday obedience, self-denial, and Christlikeness. Rooted in 1 Thessalonians 4:3, this session traces the biblical doctrine of sanctification, distinguishing between our definitive holiness in Christ and the ongoing, lifelong work of being conformed to His image. Drawing on John the Baptist’s powerful words, “He must increase, but I must decrease,” we see sanctification as the steady diminishing of self and the increasing rule of Christ in the believer’s life. From Jesus’ call to take up the cross daily to Paul’s exhortation to put sin to death by the Spirit, this episode calls Christians to Spirit-enabled obedience, dependent effort, and joyful pursuit of holiness—all for the glory of Christ. #TheologyTuesday, #Holiness, #Sanctification, #ChristianLiving, #BiblicalTheology, #Christlikeness, #HeMustIncrease, #TakeUpYourCross, #LivingTheology, #LetsTalkRadio
