Topic: Sanctification
NOTE
● False kinds of knowledge can sway a believer concerning his/her identity. When a believer does not have Epignosis of who he/she is, it is easy to be swayed away.
● Philemon 1:4-6
Communication here is the word “fellowship.”
Acknowledging is the word “Epignosis.”
● Col.1:9
The degree to which the believer will be effectual in Christ is the degree to which the believer knows what he/she has in Christ Jesus.
● What is Sanctification?
Genesis 2:3
(First place it was mentioned in the Bible)
The word sanctified is the Hebrew word “Dadash” which means to pronounce or observe something as clean/holy.
Sanctification means to set apart.
Sanctification is not inborn, a second party has to do the bestowment.
● HOW SHOULD WE TREAT PEOPLE THAT ARE SET APART / SANCTIFIED?
• Reverence – Exodus 20:8, Exodus 16:23
Sabbath means to leave, to cease, or to stop.
What makes something holy is what it represents.
● What makes the believer is Who they represent.
• Heb. 4:3, 2 Tim. 1:9.
● What was satisfied in Gen. 2:3 is faith in the Gospel. God set apart Christ for the Salvation plan. God satisfied faith in the Gospel. Because faith in the Gospel is sanctified, we also become sanctified when we believe in the Gospel (Grace through Faith in Christ).
● Sanctification means to treat something differently.
• Rom. 5:12–21.
● Sanctification is a genetic word. It is widespread.
• Lev. 20:7–8.
● Sanctification is not a process; we are sanctified at the moment of Salvation.
• Lev. 21:8, Exo. 31:13, Ezek. 37:28.
● The safest place to be is where you see yourself as God identifies you.
• Acts 21:32, 26:18, Rom. 15:16, 1 Cor. 1:2, 6:11.
● How long does our Sanctification last?
• Eph. 5:26, 1 Thess. 5:23, John 15:3.
