This little book is designed to guide the student in a study of what the Bible teaches about Holiness or Entire Sanctification.

You will find that the Bible gives great prominence to the doctrine and practice of Holiness, and every Christian should at once become a seeker for "The Fullness of the Blessing of the Gospel of Christ."

Bishop Foster, in his book on "Christian Purity" -- (In the course of study for Methodist preachers) -- says: It breathes in the prophecy, thunders "in the law, murmurs in the narrative, whispers in the promises, supplicates in the prayers, sparkles in the poetry, resounds in the songs, speaks in the types, glows in the imagery, voices in the language, and burns in the spirit of the whole scheme, from the Alpha to the Omega, from its beginning to its end. Holiness! holiness needed, holiness a present duty, a present privilege, a present enjoyment, is the progress and completeness of the Bible's wondrous theme!

The Methodist Discipline says: 'Let us strongly and closely insist upon inward and outward holiness in all its branches."

John Wesley says: "Where this doctrine is faithfully preached, all the cause of God prospers."

Dr. Adam Clark says: "If Methodism gives up preaching entire sanctification, they will soon lose their glory."

The Epworth League pledge reads: "I will earnestly seek for myself, and do what I can to help others attain the highest New Testament standard of experience and life."

"We have gathered these Bible references from Methodist sources. They are in harmony with Wesley's "Plain Account of Christian Perfection," and the Articles of Religion of the Methodist Episcopal Church, and we believe will aid students in finding the "Pearl of Great Price."

John 17:17 Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.

Psalms 119:105 Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.

We offer this book to the brethren and sisters with whom we labor, hoping and praying that we may contribute something toward a more careful reading of God's Word, and we commend it to you with the Apostle's prayer (1 Thessalonians 5:23): "And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ."

Yours In The "Fullness of the Blessing,"
