1 Cor 6 What step are you on? 

Paul speaks to the Corinthians about their new life in Christ which is summed up in this verse: “Some of you once lived this way. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.” Three steps in the new life in Christ. First is the washing of your sins away by the blood of Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit. Second is the sanctification by the Holy Spirit which means “to separate from profane things and dedicated to God., which is an ongoing process.” Thirdly now that you are washed and in the process of sanctification, you are justified which means you are prepared declared righteous to meet the Lord either now or in the life to come. 

Which step are you on? Where are you in your spiritual walk? To have completed all three you are now declared a saint of God, declared righteous.
