self-consecration

[ self-kon-si-krey-shuhn ]

Phonetic (Standard)IPA

noun

the act of setting oneself to a task or vocation without ordination by others or by a religious body.

Faithlessness towards herself had been passed over unrecognized, faithlessness towards his self-consecration was quite otherwise.

But because of this its completeness and generality it signified the entire self-consecration of the offerer to God.

Our self-consecration is not to be occasional, but continual and habitual.

Then there should come that self-consecration by which response is made to the claim of God.

So from week to week and from month to month the self-consecration grew more complete—the self-forgetfulness more perfect.
