The book examines the origins, development, and the role of the monastic movement in the capital of Byzantium. It was in the 5th century that a certain pattern of the functioning of monastic circles evolved within the specific framework of the ecclesiastical structures of Constantinople, which was a political and ecclesiastical centre of the Eastern Roman Empire. The bulk of the book is devoted to an analysis of the written accounts of the lives of the four Constantinopolitan holy men: Hypatios, Alexander Akoimetos, Daniel the Stylite, and Markellos Akoimetos. The analysis proves that the model of relationship between the holy man and the secular authority would change less than the one between the holy man and the ecclesiastical authority. The authors often cast the holy man in the role of "father", who was a kind of patron to the Emperor and his apparatus of government. On the other hand, one can observe a gradual change of the model of the relationship between the holy man and the ecclesiastical authorities from the initial opposition to a fully harmonious partnership. All the "Lives" focus on the idea of the third kind of authority existing alongside the two others; this type of authority is called religious and charismatic.

Central to God’s character is the quality of holiness. Yet, even so, most people are hard-pressed to define what God’s holiness precisely is. Many preachers today avoid the topic altogether because people today don’t quite know what to do with words like “awe” or “fear.” R. C. Sproul, in this classic work, puts the holiness of God in its proper and central place in the Christian life. He paints an awe-inspiring vision of God that encourages Christian to become holy just as God is holy. Once you encounter the holiness of God, your life will never be the same.

Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit (Galatians 5:25). The Holy Spirit empowers us, guides us, and enables us to grow and endure in our relationship with the Father through Jesus Christ. Often the most misunderstood member of the Trinity, the person of the Spirit continues to attract attention today amidst church revivals and renewals. In this new edition of his classic Keep in Step with the Spirit, J. I. Packer seeks to help Christians reaffirm the biblical call to holiness and the Spirit s role in keeping our covenant with God. Packer guides us through the riches and depth of the Spirit s work, assesses versions of holiness and the charismatic life, and shows how Christ must always be at the centre of true Spirit-led ministry. A new chapter explores Christian assurance. With abiding relevance and significance, Keep in Step with the Spirit sets forth vital knowledge for healthy and joyous Christian living, through understanding and experience of God the Holy Spirit. Here is a book for every serious believer to read and re-read.

A name is supposed to reveal a person's culture, history, character, and faculties. God can do all things and has power over both the visible and the invisible. Therefore, He has many names (attributes and character): He is Love, He is Gracious, He is Long-suffering, and so on. Jesus is the Savior, Alpha and Omega, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, and so on. The Spirit (of God and of Christ) is also called the Spirit of Truth, the Spirit of Adoption, the Spirit of Christ, and so on. But why did the Triune God single out the title "Holy" as the primary name for the third person of the Trinity above all the others? Is there more to the word holy in the Bible that we need to know? If yes, what is the purpose or the benefit of digging into the revelation and receiving the revealed knowledge and understanding of the word? The Triumph of Holiness presents the powerful revelation behind the word "Holy" and why "Holy" is the primary name for God among all the names of the Trinity. It also gives revelation knowledge on how this word, and all that the word means can change the believer's life toward victory in all aspects. Upon reading and receiving the revelation that this book presents, your knowledge of God will increase and your spiritual power will grow exponentially. You will be strengthened and equipped to live a victorious life and will be able to teach others for the same purpose.

Samuel Brengle's Helps to Holiness is a devotional classic which offers Christians guidance on following the instructions of the Lord, that they may practice faith with the greatest of fulfilment. This book's stated purpose is to guide the Christian believer to a deeper and more fulfilling experience of faith. Beginning with a definition of the term 'holiness', Brengle goes on to explain in detail tenets of Christianity that must be observed by believers in the present-day. Each separate topic is supported with quotations from the Bible, whereby Brengle ably and authentically tells the reader how to proceed with a virtuous adherence to God and His holiness. Together with its inspiring passages, which instruct the reader on how to properly devote and observe the principles set out in the Holy Bible, Helps to Holiness is an insightful account into the early history of the Salvation Army.
