This was Meade MacGuire’s first published book, written in 1924 (he would have been 49 years old then). The first half of the book deals especially with victory over sin, and how to achieve this experience of deliverance. It draws heavily on the scriptures from Romans chapter 5 through 8.
The later chapters deal with the work of sanctification, soul-winning, prayer, and abiding in Christ; or in short, Christian growth and maturity.
The appearance of this book signaled that the 1888 gospel message was not going to just fade away after the deaths of the original messengers. No; the message was alive and well, with it’s keynotes of victory over sin, deliverance from the old nature, living faith, the possibility of perfection, and the joy of freedom found in a heart that was in harmony with God’s law. 125p
