He brought with him an odor of disrespectability, rum and unsanctification.
In the liturgical sphere of worship, indeed, the idea of creatural unsanctification, of distance between Creator and creature, is the prevailing one.
Although from present unsanctification, a man cannot infer that he is not elected; for the decree may, for part of a man's life , run (as it were) underground; yet this is sure, that that estate leads to death, and unless it be broken, will prove the black line of reprobation.
To say that death to sin is incompatible with living in sin, is merely to say that sanctification is incompatible with unsanctification, which is so self-evident that no one would even think of the contrary. But to say that justification is incompatible with unsanctification is not so evident as to be a mere truism, and affords ground for an argument,—which St. Paul furnishes, by examining the intrinsic relation of atonement to self-indulgence, of justification to sanctification.
