'Holiness Made Easy by Love' demonstrates how the heart of obedience proceeds from sacrificial love for God and man. It also reveals further that legalism and humanism occur when one attempts to secure obedience to God without having the love of God shed abroad in his heart by the Holy Spirit who is the source of power, love, and sound mind. Experiential holiness in a believer's everyday life is not a mirage. It simply means growth in sacrificial love which is the summary of the entire 613 Laws, Commandments and Prophets of the Old Testament. This book has absolutely saved the believer from the confusion of extremism on the subject of holiness and righteousness as argued by both the conservative and the liberal schools of thought. Growth in sacrificial love means growth in experiential righteousness and sanctification, and not dos, don'ts and self abnegation. The danger of emphasizing holiness by legalism and (or) humanism is that it wants to secure obedience by duress and wants to show love without empathy. In view of this, Paul opined that you can speak with the tongues of men and Angels, distribute all your worldly goods to the poor and even offer yourself to be burnt without love and without reward. Ultimately, the new age doctrine which holds that positional holiness which is imputed to a believer at new birth absolves him of the responsibility to practice righteousness experientially in his everyday life has been laid to rest. Holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord, is now made easy by love.
