| | Holiness movement - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | The Holiness movement is composed of people who believe and propagate the belief that the "carnal nature" of man can be cleansed through faith and by the power of the Holy Spirit if one has had his sins forgiven through faith in Jesus. | | | The Faith Mission in Scotland was one consequence of the British Holiness Movement. | | | Three key concepts of the Holiness Movement are (1) regeneration by grace through faith, (2) Christian sanctification, also by grace through faith, and (3) the assurance of salvation by the witness of the Spirit. |

| | Holiness - International Standard Bible Encyclopedia |
| | The Sabbath is holy because it is the Sabbath of the Lord (Exodus 20:8-11). | | | From the holiness of God is derived that ceremonial holiness of things which is characteristic of the Old Testament religion. | | | When Hannah sings "There is none holy as Yahweh" (1 Samuel 2:2), the rest of the verse suggests that she is referring, not to His ethical holiness, but simply to His supreme Divinity. |

| | American Holiness Movement |
| | Pentecostalism is an offshoot of the Holiness movement. | | | The Holiness movement contributed to a deepening of the spiritual life in a materialistic age, and it was a welcome contrast to the sterile intellectualism and dead orthodoxy that characterized so many churches at the time. | | | Some Holiness denominations, most notably the Church of the Nazarene, flatly reject the use of tongues, while others, the largest being the Church of God, Cleveland, TN, and the Pentecostal Holiness Church, teach both glossolalia and entire sanctification. |

| | The Holiness Movement: Dead or Alive? |
| | God called unto Himself a holy nation, set aside a holy priesthood, established a holy Sabbath, prescribed only holy sacrifices, to be done on a holy mount, in a holy Temple with a holy place—even a Holy of Holies. | | | Holiness is a Bible truth, not some denominational distinctive or pet doctrine of the Wesleyans, Nazarenes, or Free Methodists. | | | I, for one, lament the death of the holiness movement. |

| | This command from God was for the purpose of holiness: "For thou art an holy people unto the Lord thy God" (Deuteronomy 7:6). | | | Holiness is not only an inward presence of God but it is also reflected in the outward life of the Christian in his conduct in this world. | | | In the Old Testament "Holiness to the Lord" was written across the priest's mitre; in the New Testament "Holiness to the Lord" is written on the heart of the "new creature." |

And the posts of the door were shaken by the voice of him who cried out, and the house was filled with smoke. |

| | The Church is holy and all her members are called to holiness. | | | This sacrament is at the origin of ecclesial communion in holiness, as is clear from Paul's text: "One Lord, one faith, one baptism" (Eph 4:5) quoted by Vatican II, which draws from it the statement on the links Christians in Christ and in the Church (Lumen Gentium, n. | | | Therefore numerous aspects and forms of Christian holiness are open to lay people in the various circumstances of their life in which they are called to imitate Christ, and from him they can receive the necessary grace to fulfill their mission in the world. |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Holiness |
| | Thus holiness or sanctity is the outcome of sanctification, that Divine act by which God freely justifies us, and by which He has claimed us for His own; by our resulting sanctity, in act as well as in habit, we claim Him as our Beginning and as the End towards which we daily unflinchingly tend. | | | I: Holiness Necessary for Future Blessedness; Fuller, The Holy and the Profane State; Mallock, Atheistic Methodism and the Beauty of Holiness, Essay V in Atheism and the Value of Life (London, 1884); Faber, Growth in Holiness (London, 1854). | | | These two Greek words express respectively the two ideas connoted by "holiness" viz.: that of separation as seen in hagios from hagos, which denotes "any matter of religious awe" (the Latin sacer); and that of sanctioned (sancitus), that which is hosios has received God's seal. |

| | The supreme source of holiness teaching is the Bible itself, which is the inspired Word of God. | | | Since holiness is God's very nature, when we receive the Holy Spirit of God we receive a holy nature. | | | The three holiness teachers - (1) the Bible, (2) spiritual leadership, and (3) the indwelling Holy Spirit - work together in harmony and complement one another. |

| | Holiness by J |
| | He is the root and beginning of all holiness, and the way to be holy is to come to Him by faith and be joined to Him. | | | I do it because the Scripture says, “Without holiness no one will see the Lord.” It is written, it is not my idea-it is the Bible, not my private opinion-it is the word of God, not the word of man-“Without holiness no one will see the Lord” (Hebrews 12:14). | | | To commune with God in prayer, in the Bible, and in the assembly of His people-these things will be the holy person’s principal enjoyments. |

| | The Holiness Churches: A Significant Ethical Tradition |
| | The Holiness movement differs from fundamentalism and evangelicalism in that it is more oriented to ethics and the spiritual life than to a defense of doctrinal orthodoxy. | | | Seth Cook Rees, a founder of the Pilgrim Holiness Church, insisted that "nothing but jealousy, prejudice, bigotry, and a stingy love for bossing in men have prevented women’s public recognition by the church." Alma White, founder of the Pillar of Fire, claimed to be the first female bishop in the history of Christianity. | | | But the main thrust of the formation of Holiness churches has been "unitive." Turn-of-the-century Holiness churches were formed by the gradual coalescing of missions and local organizations. |
