The security of the Christian is complete and entire, wanting nothing. There are, however, some pervasive and dangerous notions as the nature of Christian security. A false security, reasons the author, is worse than none at all, for it can breed carelessness and unfounded confidence. In this classic study, W. T. Purkiser presents a well articulated discussion of the great biblical promises that will safeguard our souls and keep us from presumptuous sin. Purkiser's purpose is that we comprehend and experience the true security promised to all of Gods children.
W. T. Purkiser (1910-92) was a prolific writer, respected scholar, and well-loved preacher within the Church of the Nazarene who also had a significant voice in the larger evangelical Christian community. He authored and contributed to some of the most widely disseminated and enduring works in the Wesleyan-Holiness tradition.
