JOHN WESLEY (1703-1791) is the chief architect and source of
inspiration for the teaching commonly referred to as Christian
Perfection. Yet the journey Wesley traveled in forming his views on
perfect love is largely unknown and often misunderstood. In this
second volume of a groundbreaking series, Olson leaves no stone
unturned as he guides the reader along a path explaining how and
why Wesley's most beloved doctrine took the shape it did. In this
way the reader is offered surprising insights into Wesley's
philosophy of discipleship and spiritual growth. All periods of
Wesley's long and eventful career are covered, with special
attention given to those factors which most influenced his own
faith journey. The entire Wesley corpus is utilized: sermons,
journals, letters, diaries, and other writings. A four gospel
scheme organizes Wesley's doctrinal development for easy
memorization and understanding. Numerous charts visually empower a
fuller understanding of Wesley's theology of perfection. Several
appendices offer a timeline and several historical studies on
Wesley's faith journey and theological development. Whether one
agrees or disagrees with Wesley's vision of Christian holiness, all
will be challenged to reflect more deeply on the nature of
Christian discipleship and what it means to be a fully devoted
follower of Jesus Christ.
