Sanctification and Lutheran Ethics
September/October 2017: Lutherans and Sanctification (Volume 17 Issue 5)
Writing from a Danish perspective, Andersen explores the role of sanctification in Lutheranism, in part by comparing it to the Methodist tradition. Focusing on the role of the Holy Spirit in sanctification, Andersen analyzes the origin of caring for the neighbor, as emphasized in Luther.
