Sermon Summary

This Sermon PREACHED AT BEAR CREEK CHURCH, North Carolina, 1998.

What does the word, Sanctification mean? That is the question Elder Pyles asks. Using 1 Cor 1:2 as a text he expounds on the saints at Corinth.

Many today actually think perfection comes by way of the flesh. Another words, we reach ultimate perfection now. But Elder Pyles asks, รขโ‚ฌล“How can these Corinthians be called saints and carnal?รขโ‚ฌย Here was a church with at least 11 errors, were they still considered a NT church?

He also implies some very practical questions, like, was it right for Paul to fellowship this group of errant brethren? And who is the judge of Churches?

Elder Pyles goes on to define the word 'Sanctification' from the Bible using the law of 1st occurrence.

Then he breaks up that word 3 ways: Positional Sanctification, Practical Sanctification and Perfect or Ultimate Sanctification. This is a very important word for Bible students to understand and this sermon will help you in knowing what it means.

Truth never changes...and what was preached then is as important and relevant today, may God bless you.
