Scriptural Holiness A Series of Papers by Early English Authors Abridged By: R.G. Flexon Many religions teach a concept of “holiness,” largely based on deeds accomplished by the individual seeking it. Buddhism, Shinto, Islam, Hinduism—all these hold to ideas that if only a person will do x , they will be saved/rewarded/reach Nirvana or Paradise, etc. This is part of what sets Christianity apart from other religions. The Bible assures us that salvation is the free gift of God, unearned by ourselves, free for the asking based on the sacrifice of Christ. And beyond that, there is a second work to be accomplished by the Baptism with the Holy Spirit. It, too, is a free gift, received when the heart is fully handed over to God for his own sovereign purpose, plans and will. The authors in this small book address themselves to several different aspects of holiness according to the direction of scripture. Here are descriptions of what it is and what it is not. There is encouragement for the seeker of the experience, promises of defense in the midst of temptation and for power with God in prayer, and the assurance that “you can have it, too!”
