Theophylact of Ohrid, on 1Cor 6:11

Theophylact of Ohrid · c. 1055–1107
1Cor 6:11 · Douay-Rheims
“And such some of you were; but you are washed, but you are sanctified, but you are justified in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the Spirit of our God.”
On this verse:
“Consider, he says, from what evils He freed you and what blessings God bestowed upon you. You too were subject to all the vices enumerated above, but He cleansed you from them, and not only cleansed you, but also sanctified you. In what way? By justifying you; first He washed you, then, having justified you, He sanctified you, not in the name of this or that teacher, but in the name of Christ and by the Holy Spirit. That is, the Trinity bestowed these blessings upon you; for in saying that God sanctified in the name of Christ and by the Holy Spirit, he expresses nothing other than precisely the Trinity.”
