Book Overview

Holiness: The False and the True

By H. A. Ironside

A Liberating Defense of Biblical Sanctification

Are you weary from the endless pursuit of an elusive, sinless perfection? Do the heavy burdens of legalistic holiness rules leave you feeling defeated, anxious, or spiritually exhausted?

In this intensely personal and biblically grounded classic, renowned Bible teacher H. A. Ironside shares his own agonizing struggle with the "perfectionism" movements of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. With deep empathy and striking candor, he contrasts the crushing weight of man-made "sinless perfection" (the False) with the liberating, rest-filled reality of true biblical sanctification through Christ alone (the True).
