Where does 1 Thessalonians 4:4 say it is the same sanctification as 1 Corinthians 6:11? I don’t see it that way when I read 1 Thessalonians 4:4. It sounds like a different sanctification because it is attached to holy action in the present moment. The sanctification in 1 Corinthians 6:11 is...

2 Thessalonians 2:13 talks about the Sanctification of the Holy Spirit to live a holy life AND a belief of the truth. The context supports this viewpoint for 2 Thessalonians 2:13 because 2 Thessalonians 2:12 shows you the polar opposite contrast of 2 Thessalonians 2:13, and 2 Thessalonians...

It says in 1 Thessalonians 4:3 that our sanctification is to abstain from fornication. So it’s not a past event. It’s still yet a future challenge for the believer. Why else would Paul say in 2 Corinthians 7:1 to cleanse ourselves from ALL filthiness of the flesh and spirit PERFECTING...

I am not into psychology and think it is unbiblical. So I would really have no idea of how to employ this tactic as you claim I have. God talks to my heart about people, and when to reply and when not to reply sometimes. I am also extremely busy and I am not looking to debate every single...

I see two kinds of Sanctification but one is being cleansed by the Spirit which is what 1 Corinthians 6:11 is talking about. 1 Corinthians 6:11 “And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our...

Obviously “sin and still be saved type believers” see “Progressive Sanctification in living a holy life by the Spirit” differently than I do. I don’t believe a Christian can justify sin and be saved. They may say they don’t justify sin, but then they turn around and imply that by quoting the...

Again, 1 Corinthians 6:11 is a different kind of sanctification in being washed or cleaned by God’s Spirit when we first come to the Lord. It’s not talking about the Spirit helping us to live more holy in our walk with God (Which is evident by the many verses I presented so far)...

Progressive Sanctification: #1. 2 Corinthians 7:1 KJB “Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.” #2. Philippians 1:6 KJB “Being confident of this very thing, that he which...

Why are we told to fight the good fight of faith and lay hold on eternal life in 1 Timothy 6:12 if Sanctification is not progressive? Why are we told to work out our salvation with fear and trembling if Sanctification is not progressive? What do you think 2 Corinthians 7:1 is saying?

Hebrews 10:14 “For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified.” Sometimes the Bible speaks of things from a hindsight or finished perspective. In other words, Hebrews 10:14 is in reference to the saints in whom God knows who will have endured to the end in their...

No. Read Matthew 13:41-42 more carefully. It says that the Son of Man (JESUS) will send forth his angels and they will gather out of HIS KINGDOM. This means that these types that are in HIS KINGDOM will be gathered out and cast into the furnace of fire (the Lake of Fire) at the Judgment...

I believe Sanctification is a process according to the Bible. I believe Philippians 2:12 is in regards to our Sanctification. It says work out your salvation with fear and trembling. One big verse that teaches Sanctification is progressive is 2 Corinthians 7:1. 2 Corinthians 7:1 says, “…let...

Ephesians 2:8-9 is dealing primarily with our Initial Salvation. It’s the 1st aspect of our salvation in being saved by God’s grace through faith without works because one is first coming to the Lord Jesus and seeking His mercy and forgiveness and believing the gospel message in 1 Corinthians...

I don’t believe it is a straw man. Listen to the contradictory message given to us by “Got Questions.” They say, I quote: “Yes, a true Christian who falls back into sin is still saved, but at the same time a person who lives a life controlled by sin is not truly a Christian.” Source: Is a...

I am not going to endlessly argue with you in your keeping of the Old Law. Titus 3:9 “But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain.” For a quick handy reference for any truth seeker: There is no Sabbath...

Eternal life is a person named Jesus Christ. For Christ alone has immortality. “…who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords; Who only hath immortality…” (1 Timothy 6:15-16). He that has the Son has life and he that does not have the Son does not have life (1...

Then what do you make of the verses in context that I brought up? No thoughts on those verses?

I am not going to address all your misunderstandings of Scripture because my time is limited, and I have a life to live, and I get the a feeling it will not benefit others to the edifying of the faith. Besides, my rebuttal of Eternal Security so far is sufficient and stands on its own with...

In Romans 7:14-24, Paul is talking from his experience of when he was a Pharisee who was under the 613 Laws of Moses before he met Jesus Christ. He was giving an account of his struggle with sin being exclusively under the Law alone when he did not know Jesus. How so? Romans 7:1 says he is...

Right, talking about Initial Salvation because WHEN does the regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit happen? It happens when you are first saved, right? So this is the 1st aspect of salvation in being saved by God’s grace without works because one is being saved by God’s grace and mercy...
