Many Wesleyan preachers seem to face a crisis over advocating the doctrine of Entire Sanctification, so Richard S. Taylor examines the crucial questions and answers. In Part One of this timely book, he looks at the nature and importance of sanctification in the Church and in society at large. He delves deeply into the Bible’s admonitions, especially Paul’s writings, and produces definitive answers that will satisfy every honest heart. Having established the “why” of holiness and its proclamation, Dr. Taylor turns to the “how” in Part Two. A magnificent series of sermons, in both text and outline forms, demonstrates various methods of presenting the doctrine in such a manner as will create a positive response from listeners and readers. With his trademark dexterity he weaves the theme throughout a broad variety of topics, showing how necessary a holy life is when considering even the mundane things of life, such as choosing a vocation or location, the qualifications of teachers, how to face trials, and much, much more. Here is a complete toolbox for the minister who wishes to be presented “approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth” (2 Tim. 2:15). These well-used tools are sharp and ready to use just as they are, or adjusted to fit the style of the speaker.
