(Mark 12:29; Isaiah 43:10-11)

Sanctification is right standing before God as a position (justification). It is granted through the blood of Jesus.

Finally we shall be like Christ when He comes again and we see Him.

(Hebrews 10: 10, 14 (Instant or Positional Sanctification); Romans 6 (Progressive Sanctification)

Baptism by immersion is an outward testimony of what has happened inwardly for a Believer. When he/she believes in Jesus his/her previous life of sin is washed and put off and he/she is raised up with Christ and is spiritually positioned with Him at the right hand of the Father.
