The subject of the sentence 10:14 is the ONE
OFFERING so Bill is saying it is "Not yet Complete"

I don't speculate on all that Bill because

sanctification requires
the cooperation of the one being
sanctified; the kind of cooperation an unbeliever would be unable

give.
That's fine, Judy, but who in this
discussion has argued that to sanctify does not mean the same as
to set apart? That is not even a point of contention. Do you agree
that this participle in Heb 10.14 reflect a sanctification
which is passive (i.e., the action is being performed by someone
other than the subject) and not yet complete? Bill
I have no idea what you are talking
about Bill. However I do understand Hebrews
10:14
and the word "sanctified" in this
instance means "set apart" in the same way that an
unbelieving
wife is "set
apart" in 1 Cor 7:14 which is "set apart in the sense that she
is become the object of
focus because of the faith and
influence of her husband. It would be impossible for her
to be
sanctified in any other sense because
she remains unregenerated and dead in her trespass
and
sin.
Fair enough. Do you accept the
present passive thrust of this verb? My impression is that you
do not.
Bill
Are you living in some kind of
delusion Bill?
My understanding of that text
remains the same as it was, so please let's deal with
reality here
rather than presumption.
