Inbred Sin and A Living Sacrifice

THIS SCHMUL PUBLISHING CO. EDITION IS NOT A SCANNED FACSIMILE OF A USED BOOK. It has been carefully typeset and proofread for accuracy and for easier reading by today's readers. Consequently there are no odd characters or missing text. This book defines the traditional Wesleyan holiness doctrine of sin, and what to do about it. The first part of the work, "Inbred Sin," identifies the very nature of sin, and its root cause. The author describes what it is and what it is not. He then addresses some mistaken theological understandings of how to deal with the problem, and when believers can expect relief. Is it removed at the same time as conversion? Must we simply bear up as best we can and wait until the moment of death? Or is there hope in this life? The second part of the book ponders the believer's consecration in presenting "A Living Sacrifice." McLaughlin presents, again, what this aspect is, and what it is not. Is it for service? Is it something God does? Is it driven by our emotions? Just why are we expected to make a full consecration-and what are the expected results, based on the authority of God's Word?
