"Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth" (John 17:17), for "Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you" (John 15:3), and "that he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word" (Ephesians 5:26), because "the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword" (Hebrews 4:12), for "all scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness" (2 Timothy 3:16), so that "the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works" (2 Timothy 3:17).
"Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking heed thereto according to thy word" (Psalm 119:9), and "Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee" (Psalm 119:11), for "Ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free" (John 8:32), because "I am the way, the truth, and the life" (John 14:6), and "the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us" (John 1:14).
"Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is" (1 John 3:2), and "every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure" (1 John 3:3), so that "the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ" (1 Thessalonians 5:23), for "Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it" (1 Thessalonians 5:24).
