Power of Sanctification is described as what?

• A. Dependence on the Spirit
• B. Self effort to keep God's commandments
• C. Obedience to commandments
• D. Knowledge of the Law

Answer: (A)

The Power of Sanctification is the Spirit's energizing work in the believer. Sanctification happens as you rely on and yield to the Holy Spirit who dwells in you, producing growth in holiness and bringing your life more in line with Christ. It’s not simply a matter of trying harder or keeping a list of commandments by your own strength. Self‑effort to keep commandments leans toward legalism and misses the means by which transformation occurs. Likewise, knowledge of the Law or mere obedience apart from the Spirit doesn’t create true change; the law shows what God requires and exposes sin, but the Spirit empowers and enables the actual transformation. When you walk by the Spirit, you experience His power to grow in righteousness, and the fruit of the Spirit becomes evident in your life.
