Foundations of Doctrine in Scripture and Experience — Harry E. Jessop, 1954 Vintage Holiness Theology

$24.99

Foundations of Doctrine in Scripture and Experience: A Students' Handbook on Holiness by Harry E. Jessop, D.D.

A vintage work of Christian theology and Holiness movement literature, originally published in 1938 by the Chicago Evangelistic Institute. This copy is the eighth printing, 1954.

Jessop approaches Christian doctrine through the relationship between Scripture, religious experience, sanctification, and holy living, making this an interesting primary-source example of early-to-mid-20th-century evangelical Holiness teaching.

For Anthrofolklorist, this is particularly interesting as a document of American religious history and lived Christianity, rather than simply a devotional title. It offers a window into the theological vocabulary and spiritual formation practices of the Holiness tradition.
