SANCTIFICATION COMES AFTER SALVATION

God bless you for taking the time to study.

TOPIC: SANCTIFICATION COMES AFTER SALVATION

TEXT: PSALM 51: 1-3 

SATURDAY JUNE 10TH 

KEY VERSE: Psalm 51: 6 “Behold thou desirest truth in the inward parts, and in the hidden part thou shall make me to know wisdom”
Note that there are two types of sins: The actual sins which you are responsible for and the nature of sin that is inherited from Adam. These can be seen clearly from the prayer of David for forgiveness, restoration, and inward cleansing. Psalm 51: 1 “Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy loving kindness, according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies, blot out my transgressions”. This means the transgressions are many. One of the transgressions was the immoral act David committed. Another one was that he sent to kill Uriah. These are actual sins and he is asking God for forgiveness, not sanctification. The sinner and the backslider are to come to God for forgiveness. 
Sanctification comes after you have been forgiven and have become a believer. It is then you take your heart back to God for sanctification. David goes further to tell us about the second kind of sin. This type of sin requires sanctification. Lord, I backslid and sinned, restore me again. Forgive me, Lord, purge me again. He has gone further to ask for sanctification. In verse 5, he introduced the second kind of sin. Psalm 51: 5 “Behold I was sharpened in iniquity and in sin did my mother conceived me.” 
David mentioned these sins. This was the same thing Jesus prayed for even after his disciples have been with him for three and half years, he said they were no more of the world because they have received the word of God, he said sanctified them because of this Adamic nature which David made reference to that gives rise to sin, actual and committed sin. In salvation, you are empowered against committed sin, but you can sin once in a while. You can fall and wonder what happened to you. There is an inner tension within which is also called the body of sin. God desires truth right inside. He wants to see through you but this inbred sin in man is a pollution that must be taken away. 

Thought for the day: Sanctification comes after salvation 

Song for the day: What can wash away my sins, nothing but the blood of Jesus

Bible reading for the day: 2 Chronicles 32-33; John 18:24-40

Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All

God's blessing shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All   Monday 24th March Text: 1 Timothy 5: 19-22 Key verse: Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear. 1 Timothy 5:20 God wants you to avoid doing evil while saying you want to go to heaven. You may be a member of a worldly church and be saying, “It is my tribal church; if I leave them, they will be angry. I do not want them to be angry.” Is it God you want to make angry by your compromise? You will see the anger of God indeed. It is through the word that you perfect the people, and as a result, the Bible says, “Thou shalt not suffer sin upon your brother. Thou shall reprove him.” Your brother or sister has done a bad thing, and you do not bother. You leave them in their sins. They may do the same to other people. The Lord says, “Correct them.” Do not allow sin to be in them because sin will take them to hell. The Bible says, “Them that sin, rebuke befo...

For taking your time to study remain blessed. UNDERSTANDING ETERNITY WEDNESDAY MAY 10 TEXT: Psalm 90: 1 - 2 Key Verse: “The Lord is King forever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land Psalm 10:16 People that understand eternity are always careful. Eternity means forever and ever, it means ever-lasting, ever-living, never dying. Trillion upon trillion years, eternity is still on, in fact it is life without end. There are two extreme ends of eternity: The kingdom of God called third heaven where God the Father, God the son, God the Holy Ghost, twenty-four elders, saints of God that make heaven, holy angels of God, and entire host of heaven dwell now presently; Hell-fire, where Satan, demons, and sinners that have died in their sins are presently kept. God is the One that introduced eternity. He lives forever. It is not a choice, the One who created us is forever, hence you will live forever, but what matters is where you will live eternally. Remove God from the way, then t...
