God’s Complete Salvation

The two aspects of God’s complete salvation

The eight items of God’s organic salvation

Dispositional Sanctification

Key verse: 2 Peter 1:4
“Through which He has granted to us precious and exceedingly great promises that through these you might become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption which is in the world by lust.”

In God’s organic salvation we are also being sanctified (that is, saturated) in our disposition with the divine, holy nature of God (2 Pet. 1:4) that we may be holy unto Him. God has chosen us to be holy (Eph. 1:4), which means that we possess and partake of God’s holy nature and participate in God’s divinity—although never in His deity, His Godhead. Dispositional sanctification is the process by which God’s holy, divine nature within us subdues and changes our natural character, our peculiar disposition, and our temperament so that the divine nature actually becomes our disposition. This inward sanctification has the element of God’s life as its “building” material and is carried out in the believers through the sanctifying work of the Spirit of life (Rom. 8:2). In this way, the believers are being sanctified, beginning from their spirit, through their soul, and ultimately, throughout their body, so that their entire being can be wholly sanctified (1 Thes. 5:23).
