Faith is the root of all holiness
Faith is the root of all holiness in a sinner. Without a firm realizing belief of the great truths of the gospel, it is impossible a sinner should be sanctified by their influence: and without a particular faith in Jesus Christ he cannot derive from Him those sanctifying influences by which alone he can be made holy, and which are conveyed through Jesus Christ, and through Him alone.
