Both the younger son (the rebellious prodigal) and the older son (the religious prodigal) are more alike than they are different: They are both opposed to receiving the free goodness and grace of the Father.

Hebrews warns us that "without holiness, no one will see the Lord." Holiness prepares us to see God. We look at three different aspects of sanctification and how they relate to each other.
