Christians generally recognize the need to live a holy, or sanctified, life. But they differ on what sanctification is and how it is achieved. How does one achieve sanctification in this life? How much success in sanctification is possible? Is a crisis experience following one’s conversion normal–or necessary? If so, what kind of experience, and how is it verified?Five Views on Sanctification–part of the Counterpoints series–brings together in one easy-to-understand volume five major Protestant views on sanctification: Wesleyan View represented by Melvin E. Dieter Reformed View represented by Anthony A. Hoekema Pentecostal View represented by Stanley M. Horton Keswick View represented by J. Robertson Mc Quilkin Augustinian-Dispensationalism View represented by John F. Walvoord Writing from a solid evangelical stance, each author describes and defends his own understanding of the doctrine sanctification and then responds to the views of the other authors.The Counterpoints series presents a comparison and critique of scholarly views on topics important to Christians that are both fair-minded and respectful of the biblical text. Each volume is a one-stop reference that allows readers to evaluate the different positions on a specific issue and form their own, educated opinion.
