by Charles Gore

[[30]] 2 Pet. i. 9.

[[31]] Rom. v. 9-11.

[[32]] 1 Cor. vi. 11.

[[33]] Cf. Hort, First Ep. of Peter (Macmillan, 1898), p. 70.

[[34]] It is noticeable that St. Paul never uses the verb translated 'to be sanctified' of persons in the present tense. It always describes an already existing state rather than a process.

[[35]] Rom. v. 18, but cf. later, p. [202].

[[36]] Hort, l.c., p. 24.

[[37]] Eph. v. 25; Tit. ii. 14; cf. Acts xx. 28.

[[38]] Ritschl, Rechtfertigung und Versöhnung, ii. p. 217 ff. Cf. S. & H., p. 122; and Orr, Ritschlian Theology (Hodder and Stoughton, 1898) p. 169 ff.

[[39]] The subject comes forward especially in connexion with chapters ix-xi.
