Justification is what God does for us, while sanctification is WHAT GOD DOES IN US. Definition of justification and santification

SDA Believe pp.138 True repentance and justification lead to sanctification. Justification and sanctification are closely related, distinct but never separate. They designate two phases of salvation: Justification is what God does for us, while sanctification is WHAT GOD DOES IN US
THIS IS WHAT THUSIA SEVENTH DAY ADVENTIST BELIEVE a original Seventh -Day -Adventist Church not controlled by those that are off -shoot from the truth -the General Conference.

Again another wrong teaching of justification by the General- conference, Justification does not lead to sanctification, justification it is not related to sanctification, my brother, justification is sanctification. I will give the evidence from the bible and from the written of Sis White, She said: "Many commit the error of trying to define minutely the fine points of distinction between justification and sanctification. Into the definitions of these two terms they often bring their own ideas and speculations" Ellen G. White Comments,The Seventh-day Adventist Bible Commentary p 1072 vol 6.(Manuscripts 21, 1891).
Before we go to the scriptures let us understand the genesis of this great dilemma "This division was first done by Melanchthon way back in the 1530', and into the separate meanings of the two- Justification and Sanctification- were brought more detailed definitions that separeted the two so far and wide as rob justification of its transformative meaning." The Splitting in Two ojf Justification by Nyron Medina pg 16.
In the scripture, we see that justification is used paralled with sanctification 1Ccor 6:9-11
9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,
10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
11 And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.

To be justified means to be made righteous as Luther said "But we are indeed justified and made righteous in Christ ...." Martin Luther, A Commentary on St Paul's Epistle to the Galatians p.146 To be Sanctified means to be "holified" or made holy (sanctified ). SANCTIFY (Heb) (quadas)...describes the state of "make holy" or 'dedicate." William D Mounce, Mounce's Complete Expository Dictionary of Old and New Testament Words , pp 610,611
"SANCTIFY) (hagiazo) is usaually rendered "make holy, sanctify, consecrate." Ibid. p.611 Please note Sis White said : "The doctrine of justification by faith, so clearly taught by Luther...E,G White The Great Controversy p 253 This clearly shows us that a justified person is one who has been made righteous, and certainly be made holy or sanctified please carefully look at the following scriptures (Tit 3;5-7compare with Eph 5:25-27and Isa 53:11) Rev22:11(Gal 3:7-9,14, compare with 2Thess 2:13) . Thus justification is the what God in us and it is the same as justification.

Anyone wishing tfor further studies on the most important topic, please send me a G mail or Email I will send a 40pg notes of NYRON MEDINA'S "THE SPLITTING IN TWO OF JUSTIFICATION" to used until the book is finished typed. these notes contains extenstive quotes from Luther and Malnchton clearly proving that it was Malanchthon that make the split in justification.

WHAT OUR INQUIRY ABOUT OURSELVES SHOULD BE?

WHAT OUR INQUIRY ABOUT OURSELVES  SHOULD BE? We are in the very last days, we are told that the last controversy will be very short. “We are standing on the threshold of great and solemn events. Prophecies are fulfilling. The last great conflict will be short, but terrible. Old controversies will be revived. New controversies will arise. We have a great work to do. Our ministerial work must not cease. The last warning must be given to the world. There is a special power in the presentation of the truth at the present time. How long will it last? Only a little while.” Ellen G. White, Selected Messages bk. 3, pg. 419. And in view of the lateness of time, what should be the inquiry of everyone? We are told: “The inquiry of everyone should be ‘whose am I? To whom do I owe allegiance? Is my heart renewed? Is my soul reformed? Are my sins forgiven? Will they be blotted out when the time of refreshing shall come?” Ibid, pg. 419. We must needs examine ourselves to see if we...

DID ELLEN G. WHITE EVER CALL THE S.D.A. CHURCH BABYLON IN ANY WAY? BY NYRON MEDINA

In the Bible is brought to view the following statement: “And after these things I  saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was  lightened with his glory. And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying,  Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. For all  nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the  earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are  waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies. And I heard another voice  from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her  sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.” Revelation 18:1-4. Of this Scripture  we are told that it speaks about the Church, fallen because of sins. “In amazement  they [the people...

EGW QUOTE ON SINFUL NATURE

We are told that Jesus had our “sinful nature.” “He took upon Him our sinful nature.” Ellen G. White, Signs of the Times, 7/30/02. “In him was no guile nor sinfulness,….yet He took upon Him our sinful nature.” Ibid. From what we have just read, we see that the term “sinful nature” for Mrs. White does not mean that the person has sin for she says that Jesus was sinfree. But what does sinful nature mean that the person? A. It means human nature affected by sin not infected with  sin. B. It means human nature weakened by sin, but not resided by sin. C. This is the Mind, Emotions/Passions, Flesh and Experience weakened by sin, but not necessarily indwelt by sin. D. It is quite true that man’s sinful nature, a nature weakened by sin, in the average sinner may have sin in it. So sinful nature for the sinner in sin is a nature weakened by sin, but the man has sin in this nature. E. This means the man has sin in his Mind, Passions/Emotions, Experience, and sin in his flesh is sin in his Mi...
