  10. Sanctification Heaven Phase One Positional Ultimate Phase Three Phase Two Experiential Christian’s Life Death or Rapture

  11. A. Positional +S; is as perfect as Jesus Christ is perfect. As much as He is set apart, believers, since they are found to be in Him, are set apart. (L.S. Chafer, Systematic Theology.)

  12. Proof of imperfect believers being Positionally +S.1 Cor 5:1-2; 6:1-8 compared to 1 Cor 1:2; 6:11

  13. 1 Cor 6:11, “Such were some of you; but you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God.”

  14. The +S of an inanimate object, such as a gift on the altar, Mat 23:17, 19, indicates that a moral change in the thing sanctified is not demanded for Positional +S.

  15. By your position as a believer in Jesus Christ, you are rightly called “holy brethren” and “saint.” Heb 10:10; Eph 4:24

  16. 1 Thes 5:23,Three aspects of the believer’s +S, designed for our protection.

  17. 1 Thes 5:23, “Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you entirely (HOLOTELES); and may your spirit and soul and body be preserved (TEREO) complete (HOLOKLEROS), without blame at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.”

  18. HOLOTELES, “Entirely complete and perfect, complete in all respects or aspects”, in relation to the three sanctificiatons.

  19. HOLOKLEROS, “Complete, whole or entire, complete in all its parts”, that is “in no part wanting or unsound”, in relation to your physical and spiritual makeup; spirit, soul and body.

  20. In all aspects of your spiritual being, spirit, soul and body, God wants to you be complete and perfect, not wanting for anything.

  21. 1. Spirit: At the moment of your salvation you were given a new human spirit, and placed positionally in union with Jesus Christ.

  22. The human spirit provides for your eternal life in Christ that can not be taken away, John 10:28. You are positionally protected from the Eternal Lake of Fire by the imputation of your human spirit.

  23. 2. Soul: Our soul can either think in terms of cosmic viewpoint or Divine viewpoint. God has given us His Word to protect us from cosmic viewpoint.

  24. When we are filled with the Spirit and apply His Word we are protected from cosmic viewpoint experientially.

  25. 3. Body: God provides a resurrection body, 1 Cor 15, which is perfect and no longer tainted by the Sin Nature. Cf. Rom 8:21; 2 Peter 1:14; 2 Peter 2:19 The Ultimate in Protection.

  26. In your “position in Christ” you stand righteous and accepted before God forever and will ultimately receive a resurrection body.

  27. Just because you are holy and sanctified in position, do not conclude that you are holy or sanctified in your everyday life.

  28. Your Position does not mean you are living a holy life unto God. That is a matter of Experiential +S.
