Possessed by God: A New Testament theology of sanctification and holiness

David G. Peterson

Challenging a common assumption, David Peterson argues that the New Testament emphasizes sanctification as a definitive event, "God's way of taking possession of us in Christ, setting us apart to belong to him and to fulfill his purpose for us."
