| Post subject: | Old Time Country Preacher: COG Ministerial Monthly Report: How Do You Determine How Many Have Been Sanctified? |
| Where in the Bible does it teach that a sinner is saved (converted; new birth), then is to seek for a second definite experience known as sanctification, which, when it happens, one is instantly and entirely, one-time done deal, sanctified, and the preacher can then check the sanctified box on his ministerial report?How does one determine the number to place in the sanctified box?Is it the exact number who were saved, like:3 Saved3 Sanctified?Or, does one wait until persons receive the baptism in the Holy Spirit, like:3 Sanctified3 Holy Spirit? |

| Oldtimer - your district overseer and/or state overseer has the responsibility to make sure you know how to fill out the monthly reports correctly.Please contact either of them.No need to clog up the board with posts of a personal nature like this |

| NBF, the dude is just trying to get it right.But to answer the OP. I was always asked when I returned to the alter after I was caught smoking (again), Well did you get sanctified AGAIN? Them 'agin's' 'always got to me! AS a youngster I was saved about 20 times and sanctified about 10. Evangelists loved me! Some facts but mostly just my [email protected]/ |

| if you can't fill out a report you need to seek another denomination that teaches progressive sanctification from the new birth. Or just keep up the hypocrisy till the DOF is modified |

| As VIRTUALLY EVERYONE ELSE knows, the number filled with the Holy Ghost is a function of the number that were saved (in the 60s, a revival saw about 60% or more that got saved receive the baptism).Water baptism? About .84 of those saved PLUS a few who felt the need to get baptized again.On the other hand, to find the number of people who actually can be reported as sanctified in our churches, you simply multiply the number who have received the Holy Ghost by .930.... |

| Please, brethren, I beseech thee, I ask not what Wesley, Spurling or Tomlinson said/thought/believed, nor do I seek denominational creedal statements. |

| every mention of salvation in the book of acts is an act of sanctification subsequent to the new birth. Just pick a narrative in which someone is getting saved and it is a second work of grace, immediate, entire, instantaneous and subsequent to the new birth. Pick a narrative and you have the chapter and verse. Now the real dilemma is to pick a chapter and verse that narrates a work of regeneration or going down to the altar to be born again. You won't find it. The Lord always precedes in working where the soul winner goes. This is why the COG past preachers preached about sanctification and the altars would be filled with seekers. We should feel more at ease reporting the sanctifications rather than the new births. We can't report to blowing wind but we can report the firm foundations laid |
