John Wood may be considered an expert on the subject of holiness, and this book shines with wisdom. It read like a question and answer session, detailing nearly all questions (totaling 228 of them) that have been raised concerning holiness and the Methodists taught it originally. Answers are not merely a parroting of party line, but are backed up with much Scripture.
This edition includes an Active Table of Contents, which is linked not only to each section, but also each individual question. This may prove to be an excellent reference!
