Description / Abstract

From the Apostles to Wesley: Christian Perfection in Historical Perspective is a thoughtful exploration of how the doctrine of holiness has been understood, developed, and lived throughout Christian history. William M. Greathouse shows that Christian perfection — a life shaped by perfect love and inner purity — is not a recent or fringe idea, but a central conviction shared by many of the Church’s greatest theologians.

With a clear focus on Scripture and a careful review of major periods of Christian thought — from the early church to John Wesley — this book provides a strong foundation for understanding and embracing holiness as an accessible and transformative grace. Ideal for students, ministers, and anyone interested in holiness theology.
