Holiness: A Biblical, Historical, and Systematic Theology Ayars Matt
Be holy because I am holy. How should we understand these charges?In this volume, three scholars from the Wesleyan tradition offer a collective treatment of the theme of holiness that includes:exegesis of key biblical passagesa survey across church historytheological reflections on the relationship between entire sanctification and other doctrinesIn addition, the coauthors constructively argue for a "neo-holiness" model that encourages the pursuit of Christian perfection but avoids the pitfalls of Pelagianism by incorporating historic understandings of grace Be perfect as your heavenly Father is perfect.The Christian life includes many demands, but perhaps none are as challenging or as misunderstood as the biblical command to "be holy" (Leviticus 11:44 and 1 Peter 1:16) or to "be perfect" (Matthew 5:48).
