Synopsis

Christian perfection means trust in God through faith, not mere flawless behavior.

This edition presents Forsyth’s view that perfection is the obedience of faith—trust in the living Christ as Saviour, not a perfected conduct apart from Him. It argues that true holiness grows from grace, marks a lifelong relationship with God, and is inseparable from a life of prayer, duty, and love in action. The work challenges the idea that sinlessness is the goal, emphasizing communion with God and the transformation that faith brings to every part of life.

• See why perfection is described as faith in action, not a flawless personality.


• Learn how prayer, duty, and love shape a life rooted in grace and trust.


• Understand why moral virtue follows from faith, not the other way around.


• Explore how true Christianity guards against Pharisaism and worldly culture.

Ideal for readers of theological discussion on holiness, grace, and the meaning of Christian perfection in daily life.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Excerpt from Christian Perfection

'Whosoever abideth in Him sinneth not.
... Whosoever is born of God cannot sin.' - 1 John iii. 6, 9.

This is one of the hard sayings which are so fascinating in the Bible. It raises one of the problems that are so engaging to our moral thoughts, and one of the anomalies that are so irritating and depressing to our moral experience.
