Holiness—The False and the True: “Second Blessing” & “Higher Life” Examined by Ironside (Audiobook)

True holiness isn’t found by looking within, but by looking to Christ. In this pastoral work, H. A. Ironside exposes the errors of the “Second Blessing” and “Higher Christian Life,” showing how such views turn us inward. With biblical clarity, he distinguishes our position in Christ from our condition, insisting that justification is not a feeling but God’s once-for-all verdict: the ungodly declared righteous through faith in Jesus. Feelings may change, but the Judge’s decision stands.
