    The Second of two messages

    The Clean Slate Justification, your legal standing before Father God

    Keeping the Slate Clean Sanctification, working out your salvation The bottom line of this message today is taken from Philippians 2:12-13

    Therefore, my dear friends, as you have always obeyed--not only in my presence, but

    now much more in my absence--continue to work out your salvation with fear and

    trembling, for it is God who works in you to will and to act according to his good

    purpose.

    The expression The Clean Slate is an expression meaning a new start

    The expression Keeping the Slate Clean does not mean never using it, but more

    dont let it get contaminated

    As these messages build on each other so we will live a in transformed state, living in

    the pattern of Father Gods kingdom, lets review last week. Justification.

    Legal standing our position has changed,

    We have been moved from condemned to blameless

    Our Legal standing before Father God is righteousWe are clothed in the righteousness of Jesus we are seen in His inherent

    goodness

    Once for all time it is finished

    It has been done in Christ; He did a complete job

    You receive Justification and are declared righteous before Father God, when

    you receive Jesus

    Entirely Gods work by grace through faith

    For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith and this not from

    yourselves, it is the gift of God not by works, so that no one can boast. For we

    are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God

    prepared in advance for us to do.

    If you are still here and you are in Jesus, then He has a purpose for you

    Perfected in this life He has adopted us as He children

    There are no half measures or second class children in Father Gods household

    The same for all the children of God we are all in the same position

    Everyone who enters the household of the Father receives the Righteousness of

    Jesus

    There is not other way in!

    THERE IS NOW NO CONDEMNATION FOR THOSE WHO ARE IN CHRIST

    It can not be taken of you, ...in all these things we are more than conquerors...

    If anyone is in Christ they are a new CREATION, the old has gone, the new has come IICor 5:17

    Gal 5:1 It is for freedom that Christ has set us free.

    So what does the word sanctification mean? Let look at the Hebrew and Greek word

    used in the Bible:

    Hebrew: QUADASH to be clean; holy; dedicated; set apart;Greek: HAGIAZO to make holy

    To HOLY is to be like GOD in character and attitude:

    (2 Cor 3:18 NRSV) And all of us, with unveiled faces, seeing the glory of the Lord as

    though reflected in a mirror, are being transformed into the same image from one

    degree of glory to another; for this comes from the Lord, the Spirit.

    Glory = revealed character of God

    A Picture of Sanctification as a process of becoming Christ Like

    (Gen 5:24 NIV) Enoch walked with God; then he was no more, because God took himaway.

    (Heb 11:5 NIV) By faith Enoch was taken from this life, so that he did not experience

    death; he could not be found, because God had taken him away. For before he was

    taken, he was commended as one who pleased God.

    (1 Pet 1:14-16 NIV) As obedient children, do not conform to the evil desires you had

    when you lived in ignorance. But just as he who called you is holy, so be holy in all you

    do; for it is written: "Be holy, because I am holy."
