  2. Memory Verse1 John 1:9, “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”

  3. The Upper Room DiscourseJohn 13-16; John 13:9-10, Rebound, not Salvation, is Picture.

  4. Peter wanted to do something for the Lord instead of receiving what the Lord had done for Him.

  5. Receiving what God has done for you is the key to glorification of God and producing divine good.

  6. “You have no part with me”, refers to walking in the Light, as He himself in the Light, and sharing all that the Light has for us in time and eternity.

  7. This means no experiential sanctification from NIPTO, washing of the filth and defilement (sin) we might have accumulated by contact with the world.

  8. Peter wants what the Lord has to offer him but does not understand what is being offered - No capacity to receive what God has for him.

  9. Peter is not using the Word resident in his soul. He is letting his emotions run wild in the error of over zealousness.

  10. The Lesson: When our soul comes in contact with our Sin Nature, it picks up the filth of the Sin Nature that needs to be cleaned off.

  11. The issue is cleansing of daily sins through rebound, so that we "walk in the Light as Jesus Himself is in the Light", 1 John 1:7.

  12. Peter wanted to take a second bath, and that is like doubting your salvation.

  13. Christ has done all the work, and we need to receive God's saving grace work for our salvation.

  14. There is nothing we can do to save ourselves or ensure our salvation, other than the one time, non-meritorious act of faith. Eph 2:8-9

  15. Overzealousness, coupled with ignorance of the Word of God, leads to unknowingly refusing your experiential sanctification.

  16. Emotion can only carry you so far. But the Word of God, resident within your soul, is power and strength everlasting.

  17. Rom 1:16, "For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek." w/ 1 Cor 1:18

  18. 1 Cor 2:5, "So that your faith would not rest on the wisdom of men, but on the power of God." w/ 1 Peter 1:5; Isa 40:31

  19. There is a difference between union and communion, between regeneration and rebound.

  20. “He who has bathed” is the Perfect tense, Passive voice, Participle of LOUO, which means to wash the entire body, or to take a bath.

  21. We are saved once, yet need to rebound many times.

  22. LOUO is used as the illustration of salvation, while NIPTO is used for rebound.

  23. Sin and carnality do not mean that a believer must be saved again.

  24. LOUO is also found in Acts 16:33 and Heb 10:22.
