Sanctification
Christian Growth

“John Newton, 18th-century slave ship captain turned pastor, experienced both a dramatic conversion and the frustration of slow maturation. In a series of three letters, Newton identifies three stages of a believer’s growth, labeled with the first three letters of the alphabet: young (A), growing (B), and maturing (C) believers.” - TGC
