John Wesley and His Doctrine

More about the book

"During the late 1800s the doctrine of Christian perfection as taught by John Wesley was increasingly challenged, paralleled by rising worldly accommodation in the church. During this dark time the author felt the need to address such claims by the opponents of Christian perfection - assertions that Wesley himself did not advocate it as a second work of grace, or if he had, he changed his mind in his later years. Today, scholars and preachers now repeat the errors of the late nineteenth century, casting aspersion on the doctrine and looking askance at those who still hold to it. In such an environment, McDonald's work rises again to affirm the solid truths of scriptural holiness as proclaimed by John Wesley and the early Methodists."--Back cover.
