Revisiting an older note study.

Doctrine of the Body of Christ helps clarify the actions in sanctification, justification, and salvation. It is very easy to confuse the act of salvation as only effecting the individual believer, but once we are saved, in this dispensation we become part of the Body of Christ.

Think of the Body of Christ as that over which He is given control from His Volition, such that as the new man, we are members of His Body and by His Plan(Father) through faith in Christ(Son), He is able to perform by His volition maneuvering us where He wants us.

The Work of God the Holy Spirit glorifies the Son by continuing to sanctify the Body, while Christ also sanctifies the Body per Heb 13:11-13
