Dąbek, Tomasz Maria (Wydział Teologiczny Uniwersytetu Opolskiego, 2013)
The sanctity in the New Testament is the internal change of the human person. The Christians are the new people united with Christ who died and was resurgent (was raised to life)(Rm. 1:3-7; 4:24-25; 5:1-2,6-11; 6:3-11; 7:4-6; 8:1-11,15-17,26-30.33-34; 12:13; 14:7- 9; 15:16,25-26,30-31; 16:1-2,11-15; 1 P. 1:1-2,14-25; 3:15; cf. 1 Co. 1:1-2; 6:11; Rv. 7:14). They are bound to answer to divine gift ‒ they are obliged to live in sanctity as spiritual sacrifice acceptable to God (1 P. 2:5; cf. Rm. 5:3-5; 6:19,22; 1 P. 2:5-3,17). This is the fruit of their faith.
