For what the law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, on account of sin: He condemned sin in the flesh, that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit. Romans 8:3-4 Jesus not only fulfills the law for us, which is our justification, He also fulfills the law in us which is our sanctification. Justification is me in Jesus. Sanctification is Jesus in me. Justification is my salvation from the penalty of sin. Sanctification is my salvation from the dominion of sin. Justification is my title to eternal life. Sanctification is my fitness for eternal life. Jesus took my flesh to the cross and died not just for me but as me. I was in Christ when He was crucified, and now Christ is in me as I am crucified to self.
