Q

the primary sense in which “sanctification” is used in Scripture and theology

definition (see earlier discussion)

scriptural teaching on progressive sanctification

John 17:17 - Jesus prays for our sanctification in the truth -

Philippians 1:6 he will continue his work in us

2 Corinthians 3:18 ongoing work with the HS

1 Thessalonians 4:3 God’s will for us

Romans 6:12-13

Colossians 3:10

the nature of progressive sanctification (later discussion)

A

progressive sanctification

29
Q

definition the totally deliverance of the influence of sin and perfection of our nature
scriptural teaching on completed sanctification

Hebrews 12:23 spirit of righteous made perfect

c. the nature of completed sanctification (more in personal eschatology)

at death - go to be with the Lord - set free from sin - receive our glorified bodies

at Christ’s return - then we will receive our santified bodies.. we will be in heaven without our bodies until Jesus comes back - we will long for the beautifulcation of our bodies - then and only then will we in body perfected

A

completed (perfected) sanctification

30
Q

sanctification is

A

never completed in this life

some theologies and denominations hold to a view of “entire sanctification” or “sinless perfection,” an experience in the life of completed sanctification (this may be instantaneous or the result of a process)
john wesly - pure love

as one person describes it, this is a definitive work of God’s sanctifying grace in which a person is fully released from rebellion and disobedience into wholehearted love for God and others (Dieter, p. 17); it is “salvation from all willful sin,” (Dieter, p. 15); therefore “sin” refers to a deliberate violation of the known will of God

31
Q

sanctification is never completed in this life

support for this view

A 
Scripture commands perfection and therefore implies it is attainable
Matthew 5:48
2 Corinthians 7:1
1 Peter 1:16
1 Thessalonians 5:23

some believers are called “perfect”
1 Corinthians 2:6
Colossians 2:10 some r perfect
Ephesians 4:13

Scripture provides examples of “perfect saints”
Genesis 6:9
Job 1:1
1 Kings 15:14

1 John 3:6, 9 and 5:18- believers do not sin

32
Q

***but Scripture itself is overwhelmingly against this view

A 
no one is without sin
1 Kings 8:46
Proverbs 20:9
Ecclesiastes 7:20
Romans 3:10, 23

confession of sin is constantly required
1 John 1:8-10
Matthew 6:11-12

approaching God reveals one’s sins
Isaiah 6:1 ff.

33
Q

the support for this position is unfounded

scriptural commands do not imply …

the appellation “perfect” is better rendered “mature”

-they refer the ….?

the scriptural examples of “perfect saints” are contradicted

Genesis 6:9
Job 1:1
1 Kings 15:14

“righteous” and “blameless”

1 John 3:6, 9 and 5:18 - sin no more ir abide in Christ.. impossible for a true believer to live in habitual sin; out of char. - also a command

circumscribing the nature of sin - limits how bad sin is

sanctification is never complete in this life - not an excuse to sin

warning! use caution and wisdom in sharing this truth

A

attainability
set forth the goal/ what we strive for

general char. of ones life - overall

34
Q

sanctification involves

A

both God and believers

35
Q

What is God’s role in sanctification?

A

in ways that are appropriate to his divine agency

1 Thessalonians 5:23 - God who sanctifies - he is the one who will change our char.
Philippians 2:13 - God causes us to want his will and grants us power to do it
Hebrews 13:20-21 - God works in us whatever is pleasing in his sight

it is especially the Holy Spirit who is responsible for our sanctification

1 Peter 1:2
2 Thessalonians 2:13
Galatians 5:22-23

36
Q

What is our role in sanctification?

A

our role - in ways that are appropriate to our human agency, we don’t try to do God’s work, not equal, but cooperative

*passive role - to yield/depend on God’s work

Romans 6:13 - yield yourself to God; posture of submission
Romans 12:1 - offer yourself to God
Romans 8:13 - Spirit guides, be responsive to the work of the HS
Ephesians 5:18
Philippians 2:13 - trust God to will and work in us

*active role - strive to obey God and increase in sanctification

Philippians 2:12-13 work out our salvation, work hard in string for sanctification - good fruit will result because God’s work is in us;
-God’s work is primary to and foundational for our work
Hebrews 12:14 - strive for holiness
1 Thessalonians 4:3 abstain from immorality
1 John 3:3 purify yourself
2 Peter 1:5-11 make every effort to grow in godly character

37
Q

ways in which we exercise our active role

both of our roles are important!

don’t forget the community dimension of our sanctification
Hebrews 10:24-25

A

spiritual disciples - reading scripture, praying, memorizing, meditating, obeying, repentance, fast, corporate worship with fellow believers

trust and obey because there is no other way to be sanctified in Jesus
strive actively

38
Q

anctification affects the whole person

explain this… 4 aspects

A
  1. our intellect - our mind, our reasoning - be about the renewing of our mind, take every thought captive to Christ

Colossians 3:10
Philippians 1:9
Romans 12:2
2 Corinthians 10:5

  1. our emotions - not as anxious as we use to be, peace instead

Matthew 6:30-31
Philippians 4:6-8
Ephesians 4:31

  1. our will - our decision making capacity, God’s will will become more an more reflected in our will; we desire the will of God and the will of God only

Philippians 2:13

  1. our body - use our hands for praise of God

1 Thessalonians 5:23
2 Corinthians 7:1
1 Corinthians 6:19-20

39
Q

perseverance thesis: If we are going to gain the assurance of being and remaining a christian we must

A

rest our faith on the firm foundation of the work of triune God and His word.

40
Q

to the question, “Will the operation of divine grace begun in a true believer’s life certainly continue and be brought to completion such that a genuine Christian can never completely fall away from Christ and fail to obtain eternal salvation?”, two different answers—one positive, one negative—have historically been offered

A

Calvinists - yes it will certainly continue, certainly be brought about +

Arminians - no certainty of that -
41
Q
  1. definition (from a Calvinist perspective: “They, whom God has accepted in his Beloved, effectually called, and sanctified by his Spirit, can neither totally nor finally fall away from the state of grace, but
  2. this does not apply to
  3. these true believers, though they may fall into sin temporarily, will certainly
    • backsliding of worldliness.. but eventually they will return
    • testimony of person who had committed bad sin
    • no sin is too big for God
      • once saved always saved - but once genuinely saved, always following
  4. what does this refute?
A
    1. shall certainly persevere therein to the end, and be eternally saved”
      1. everyone who professes faith - only to those whom God has elected and saved - genuine Christians
      2. persist in exercising faith and engaging in good works in the midst of temptations and attacks
      3. this refutes “a common caricature of this doctrine which describes it as teaching that believers are certain to be saved no matter how they live” (Hoekema, “The Perseverance of True Believers,” in Saved By Grace)
42
Q

perseverance is a continuing work of God and hence the security of these true believers does not ultimately rest on

Carson quote….

A

their ability to withstand assaults and maintain themselves in Christ

“genuine faith, by definition, perseveres; where there is no perseverance, by definition the faith cannot be genuine (D. A. Carson

43
Q

this saving faith includes perseverance as a ……
1 John 2:9 - element of perseverance
if they would of had saving faith they would of continued with us
motus potus argument - nature of saving faith… it continues, it always perseveres

eternal security (or assurance of salvation) is not the same as

A

constitutive element

perseverance

44
Q

scriptural teaching on perseverance (a Calvinist perspective)

passages emphasizing the character of God and perseverance

A

1 Peter 1:3-9 - on God’s powerful work to keep us in the faith; an inheritance reserved for us in heaven, we are guarded/protected rom anything that could try to get our inheritance (demonic and ourselves)

Philippians 1:6 Paul’s confidence - God completes what he begins - God’s work of salvation in our life will continue until Christ returns

the reality of being part of the new covenant

51
Q

perseverance from an Arminian perspective

while emphasizing that provision of persevering grace has been made for the Church, this view does not consider this grace to be

A

indefectible, but conditional with respect to each individual Christian

protected by God’s power… but this grace can be resisted
ultimate salvation is contingent on the believer persevering

52
Q

can u stop the process of salvation? what is her salvation ultimately laid upon?

A

thus, “there is no way of telling whether a given person in the Church will persevere to the end; the fact of his perseverance at any given moment is shown in the fact that he is persevering” (I. H. Marshall, Kept By the Power of God).

themselves; this is works; this is merit

Q

A

arm say yes.. genuine believers can

Q

a compatibilist approach to this doctrine encourages

A

responsible integration of the passages stressing God’s continuing work of preservation with those emphasizing the believers’ responsibility to persevere in the faith

60
Q

acknowledging the difficulty of knowing if some people are genuine believers, it admits that some non-believers give

example?

A

startling evidence of conversion

Matthew 7:21-23 - not everyone who says to me Lord Lord will come into heaven
Hebrews 6:4-6 once enlightened, shared in gifts, sounds like true believers, understood the gospel..
1 John 2:18-19

Joellie…. from Rome…wife took child out of wedlock… Argentia.. was always about what you have to do, not what Christ did - though he seemed like a genuine believer he was not

61
Q

these non-believers do turn away, not from saving faith, but from the

if the Scriptural authors have categories for __________________ (faith which seems like saving faith but isn’t) then passages which speak of people falling away do not compel us to conclude that their defection is from saving faith
-move away from religious orientation.. not true christians
2 Tim 3:2-5

true believers, however, always continue in grace until ultimate salvation, and the ground of this perseverance is God’s sustaining power which works through the persistent faith of believers

Q

what is the nature of perseverance?

  2. the pledges and prayers of God the Son
  3. the testimony of God the Holy Spirit
  4. the promises of the Word of God
  5. present faith and obedience

Q

don’t ground your salvation on an experience, but on the

A

triune God and His Word

67
Q

ultimately, assurance of salvation is grounded on

A

God’s salvific activity and not some subjective sense (faith, evaluation of good works, personal profession)

68
Q

yet, a subjective sense is not to be minimized but rather directed toward thanksgiving to God: as a believer contemplates the phenomenal transformation which she has undergone (she now knows God, trusts Christ, follows the Spirit, repudiates sin, desires the Word, loves others), she should be drawn to the source of this change (God’s marvelous work) and conclude rightly,

A

“I must be elect and saved, for God’s loving and gracious work alone can explain this wonder!”

Q

objections to the compatibilist perspective

5.

A
  1. it is inconsistent with human freedom (a guarantee of such a continuous work of God does not allow for human freedom, which includes the possibility [and in some cases, the actuality] of falling away)
  2. it leads to laxness and immorality
  3. it contradicts Scripture, which records several cases of apostasy
  4. it contradicts Scripture, which issues warnings against apostasy (this would seem uncalled for, if the believer could not fall away)
  5. it contradicts Scripture, which urges believers by means of exhortation to continue in the way of sanctification (this would appear unnecessary if there were no doubt that they will continue to the end)
