There seems to be a lot of confusion today about the subject of holiness. What is "holiness"? Does God call us to lead holy lives? As sinful creatures born into this world, can we ever hope to accomplish this? In The Highway of Holiness, author Olusola Osinoiki examines this complex subject and reveals several keys that we can follow in our pursuit of holiness. Through practical application of Scripture, he demonstrates what the fruit of a holy life will look like and explores how we can hope to maintain a godly lifestyle. He shows how God will empower each of us to lead the lives He wants us to lead through the power and the work of His Holy Spirit. If we want to call ourselves children of God, we must be holy children before God. This book is another signpost on the Highway of Holiness that will encourage each of us to continue on this journey in pursuit of a life like Christ's. Blessed are those who take all of the resources of heaven to live a life that is truly holy in the eyes of the almighty God!

Excerpt from Holiness, or the Higher Christian Life In these scriptures are embodied our reasons for appear ing thus prominently before the church in defence of what we conceive to be important truth. Obedience to duty, therefore, and not any desire to pro voke controversy, impels us to an humble effort to meet some of the objections entertained by many pious Christians to the doctrine of Holiness, or the Higher Christian Life, believing that many of those objections, though honestly entertained, would disappear, before a proper understand ing of the subject. Notwithstanding the many aids furnished to a correct understanding of the doctrine of holiness, multitudes mis apprehend its true nature. Opinions are formed from terms and technicalities, not from a careful analysis of the facts represented by those terms, thus leading to the belief that more is claimed by the advocates of this doctrine than the truth warrants.

“There was a time,” writes renowned theologian J. I. Packer in this classic book on biblical holiness, “when all Christians laid great emphasis on God’s call to holiness. But how different it is today! To listen to our sermons and to read the books we write, and then to watch the zany, worldly, quarrelsome way we behave, you would never imagine that once the highway of holiness was clearly marked out for Bible-believers.” In this revised and updated edition of Rediscovering Holiness, the highway is once more clearly marked out for a new generation of readers, pointing to true freedom and joy, both now and in eternity. “There was a time,” writes renowned theologian J.

WHERE ARE YOU ON THE HIGHWAY TO HOLINESS? Being a Christian is more than just an instantaneous conversion - it is a daily process whereby we grow to be more and more like Christ. When we no longer desire to grow and please our Lord, we stifle the work of the Holy Spirit by telling Him to move out from behind the steering wheel and into the back seat; essentially telling Him we are happy to have Him along for the ride, but we want to maintain control of our lives. Christians are only as holy as they want to be. John the Baptist addresses this thought head on when he said, "He must increase, but I must decrease" (John 3:30). Here in this short scripture John identifies the main battleground for all Christians - to become more like Christ while simultaneously conquering our sinful nature. The church as a whole has pulled off of the Highway to Holiness into a rest area where we have become comfortable parked under the shade tree of contentment. We have become satisfied with our spiritual growth telling ourselves that, while we are not what we are suppose to be, we are much better than what we use to be before Christ. We have grown weary of battling our own flesh which has extinguished the passion and desire we once had to pursue holiness and righteousness. However, complacency with Christ is the graveyard where Christians go to die. Supported by numerous scriptures, "Navigating the Highway to Holiness" identifies areas within the church that have been weakened by false doctrine and the spirit of compromise, while simultaneously challenging Christians to continually move towards perfection through the power of the Holy Spirit, and by allowing Christ to assume His rightful place on the throne of our hearts.
