    How to Get Sanctified (Sanctification Ep. 11)

    How exactly does a believer experience the second work of grace? In this practical episode of Rightly Dividing, Eric Black and Dr. Brian Black move beyond just theology to answer the most important question: how to actually get entirely sanctified. They walk through the essential, biblical conditions required for God to perform this transforming work in your heart—starting with a clear foundation of salvation, recognizing your inner spiritual need, earnestly asking for the Holy Spirit, making a complete consecration, and trusting God with absolute faith. Using relatable analogies like the total commitment of a wedding day and handing God a signed "blank check" for your future, this discussion illustrates what it truly means to die to your own will. If you are hungry for victory and a deeper walk with the Lord, tune in to discover how yielding your entire heart allows God to do exactly what He promised!

    Christian Perfection (Sanctification Ep. 10)

    What does the Bible actually mean when it commands believers to "go on to perfection"? In this episode of Rightly Dividing, Dr. Nick Black and Dr. Brian Black break down the Wesleyan-Holiness doctrine of Christian perfection, moving past the confusing caricatures of "sinless perfection" to reveal a beautiful biblical calling. By examining the original Greek word teleos across passages in Matthew, Hebrews, and James, they explain how God offers a distinct, second work of grace subsequent to conversion. Rather than demanding a flawless, mistake-free human existence, this spiritual completeness is about total surrender and perfect love. If you’ve ever wondered what it truly means to love God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength, join us for an eye-opening discussion on experiencing the fullness of a fully yielded life.
